Heed Call to Action: Craig Kielburger in Guelph

GUELPH MERCURY - MAY 17, 2008

Guelph-area students and parents may have raised enough money last night to build an elementary school somewhere in poverty stricken Kenya this summer.

Hundreds who came to hear Toronto-based child rights advocate Craig Kielburger speak last night at the River Run Centre chipped in money to contribute to the $10,000 cost of the school, which will be built by Kielburger's Free The Children organization.

"We've got to be close. We're right on that cusp," said Abid Virani, co-chair of Student Reach, an organization area high school students formed last year to raise money for a school.
