US Budokai Karate Leadership students met on Friday 1/13 to culminate our Bottle Drive effort! Who will be the lucky charity?
We are happy to report that RESPECT Supersession was a “Charitable” Success!! 49 participants named 21 charities and everyone made confident, convincing, and persuasive presentations on behalf of their selected organization. Great job Leadership!
We learned about Alley Cat Allies, the Animal Protective Foundation, CAPTAIN, Catskill Animal Sanctuary, Cocoa House, Feline Advocates Coming Together, Homeward Bound Dog Rescue, Make-a-Wish, Muslim Soup Kitchen, North Country Wild Care, Out of the Pits, Ronald McDonald House, Saratoga County Animal Shelter, St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital, St. Mary’s Crescent, Things of my Very Own, Umbrella of the Capital District, Water for South Sudan and Team Seas!!!
In the end, the most supported cause was the Mohawk Hudson Humane Society which earned 13 votes!!
With so many animal-type charities named, everyone was happy that cats and dogs would benefit from our bottle drive! To date over $1000 has been collected!! The bottle drive will continue through the end of January so let’s keep going and take it over the top!!
LEADERSHIP = LEARNING OUR COURAGE AND CONFIDENCE CAN CHANGE THE WORLD!!
