| KENIA: In the news, yesterday Blair students staged a walkout to protest Donald Trump winning last week’s election, and took to the streets. They closed down the westbound section of University Boulevard, and were escorted by police. This comes in the midst of multiple protests against Trump that have dominated the headlines for the past week. |
| JESSICA: Did you know that approximately 79,000 to 81,000 of Montgomery County residents do not know where their next meals will come from? Please help support the canned food drive by bringing in any of the following items: canned goods as well as boxed cereal, tuna fish, rice and peanut butter. |
| KENIA: Passionate about education for girls and women? Join Blair’s Girl Up Club, starting this Thursday at 3:30 in room 164 and work to help girls around the world get the education they deserve. |
| JESSICA: Need SSL hours? You can walk with Mid-County United Ministries and join those fighting hunger in our community! They will meet in the parking lot of the Presbyterian Church of the Atonement, and walk three-quarters of a mile along Georgia Avenue to the Mid-County Regional Services Center in Wheaton, where the organization’s pantry and offices are located. The walk will take place at 3 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 20. Let’s honor Thanksgiving by making sure everyone has a seat at the table! |
