Charity
This year's charity is the Christian Help Center/The Food Bank. It is located at the Frederic School is entering its second year of operation. We are funded completely by local donations and served over 220 different families on a regular basis last season. We are open every Monday from 4:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. and every family in Crawford County who has a child attending our schools, from pre-school through fifth grade, are eligible to receive a box of assorted groceries every other week to supplement their family's food budget. We greatly appreciate the support of the G.H.S. Student Senate; their contribution is making a positive difference in the lives of hundreds of children in our community.

Committees

• Community Service (CS): Each year, Senate chooses a charity to support. This committee organizes fundraising opportunities for the charity.
• Student Assemblies (SA): This committee plans spirit week and awareness assemblies throughout the year.
