Christmastime will be much merrier for local children of families in need as Vantage Career Center’s Interact students held several fundraisers, raising over $3,600.00 to go toward the annual Toss A Toy event. Fundraisers included a $1.00 jeans day, $1.00 ugly Christmas sweater contest, classroom Christmas carolers with the option of Grinch Insurance, and a change stall. With the collected funds, students and advisors organized a field trip to Wal-mart where they purchased 3 truckloads of toys for local families and children in need. A very special thanks to Van Wert Wal-Mart and Lee Kinstle GM Sales and Service who provided transportation of the toys to the Salvation Army.
