Puppy Cuddles at SSCS

Wow! October flew right by here at South Side Christian School! We had one particular day that stood out to us—Puppy Cuddles Day! A student and his family from the grades 6-9 classroom regularly foster puppies through the Paws and Claws Animal Rescue Foundation and thought it would be a wonderful way to spread some cheer throughout the school.

Our SSCS Student Council team decided it would be helpful if we could somehow fundraise for this wonderful organization. We decided the best way to do this is to have students donate a dollar for puppy cuddles. Word of mouth spread to the Alberta Conference, and by God’s grace, we raised $187! To add a little bit of incentive for fundraising, we had the opportunity to name one of the puppies. The winning name is Oopsie.
