Madonna Catholic School’s Earth Club consists of a group of very motivated students who care deeply about the earth and the creatures who live on it. Growing every year in members, students learn about different issues affecting the planet and do their part to help. They are just one group of students in one Alberta school, but they are making a huge difference.
These are just a sample of projects the Earth Club did in a year:
- Rice Krispies bake sale to raise money to help domestic animals.
- ‘Adopted’ 16-20 animals through the World Wildlife Fund to raise money to help wildlife.
- Reminded students (and teachers) to participate in Earth Hour.
- Wrote letters to the environment minster about the underfunded Grizzly Bear Recovery Program. After their letter writing campaign, the program received a budget boost!
