	Earthquake in Haiti Children Helping Children Our Cupeyville family is joining the relief efforts on behalf of the children of Haiti. Our objective is to raise awareness about the lack of basic necessities in that neighboring nation and provide them with much needed help. We will be collecting necessary items such as water (individual bottles, please), baby food, canned food, medicines, First Aid items(such as gauze and triple-antibiotic) and Pampers. Families who wish to give monetary contributions may make checks out to: Fundación Cívica Haitiano-Caribeña, Inc. Account # 035143185 with BPPR. Donations will be accepted in our school until Wednesday, January 20. Hand in all donations to your child’s homeroom teacher. These donations will be used for the sole purpose and benefit of the children of Haiti. Cupeyville families always make a difference!

	Leukemia and Lymphoma Society During the past two years, we have been encouraging our students to give to needy communities or to charitable organizations. Last Christmas we focused on gifts for needy children through the Three Kings activity. This was a huge success. This year we would like to be a part of a race sponsored by the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society which will be held in Florida. One of our own parents, Mr. Anthony Negrón, will be participating. He has two children in Cupeyville, Giancarlo in 9th grade and Gabriel in 6th grade. If you would like to contribute, you my send checks to your child's homeroom made payable to: SOCIEDAD CONTRA LA LEUCEMIA Y EL LINFOMA or LEUKEMIA & LYMPHOMA SOCIETY For more information about the event, go to: http://www.leukemia-lymphoma.org/all_page?item_id=4247
