BOSTON: Students help
bigger community
Continued from Page 1
This project is a large one
and the students in the group
are putting a lot of their per­
sonal time into making-it hap­
pen. Why did they decide to do
this project instead of* some­
thing simpler?
“We originally wanted to
put a solar* panel ray on the
house of a needy family; but
then two weeks into the term
the Boston Marathon eveht
happened,” said Matic.
“We basically saw that peo­
ple needed help and funds,
and we just changed our gears
and put all the effort towards
helping those people out.”
He continued, “We are
doing it to show national com­
munity and to show that even
though Boston is on the other
side of where we are, it’s still.
-our duty as a national com­
munity to help each other out.”
Matic isn’t the only student
on the team that feels obli-
gated to help beyond the local
community. They all feel the
same way, including Michael
Malmberg.
“It’s everyone’s responsibil­
ity to help those in need,” 'said
Malmberg.
Other activities at the event
will include a paddle race, live
acoustic music, potato sack
and egg spoon races for kids
ii
