Penny Wars

Kennedy is always looking to make money for good causes. One of the ways we earn this money is what is known as "Penny Wars".

Penny wars is a type of fundraiser we have for students and teachers to give money towards children against hunger.

Each class, typically your 3rd hour class, collects money for a couple of weeks to help the kids in Africa to get the food they need. At the end of penny wars we package all the food to send out for those kids.

We get very competitive with it but it's for a really good cause. Each class competes to raise the most money in order for a "prize". This year it was for a spirit stick point for our school pep assembly.

The 2015-16 winner for penny wars has still yet to be determined.

It's one of many fundraisers that Kennedy does but this one, everyone gets into it and get excited. People tend to look forward to it considering it is a fun activity that the students get to be involved in and it's supporting a great cause!
