Montessori del sol Dress Red for Haiti Relief

(CNS): The teachers and students at Montessori del sol recently participated in a “Dress Red” day to raise money and awareness for the Red Cross, specifically to aid with hurricane relief in Haiti.

According to a release, the Dress Red day demonstrated to the students how to get involved toward positive change and bring much-needed awareness to specific needs.

“Children are never too young to understand the value of helping others”, comments Montessori del sol owner, Amy Tipton. “The students enjoyed dressing in red and learning about the ways that the donation will help those in Haiti”.

Money raised will go to the Cayman Islands Red Cross Haiti relief fund. For more information on the CI Red Cross, please visit http://www.redcross.org.ky/
