• At least 300,000 Haitians are homeless in Port au Prince. Approximately 3 million Haitians are in need of help as they recover from the January earthquake. PHS students have the opportunity to directly help a family that has been displaced by the earthquake.  The Interact Club will be selling lollipops and collecting change donations during lunches March 15th through March 19th. Our goal as a school is to raise $1000.00 to purchase a shelter box, which includes a tent for up to ten people and other supplies, and send the box to Haiti to house and help a family. For more information please check out PHSCC website.  For more information visit shelterbox.org.
