Community Press - CCDS students organize own philanthropic event

Community Press - CCDS students organize own philanthropic event: "CCDS students organize own philanthropic event

Cincinnati Country Day School middle school students learned about philanthropy for a finance class, taught by Ken Gillette of Merrill Lynch. The students applied what they had learned in the course and organized a philanthropic event of their own.

The students first researched various nonprofits and foundations to decide which to support, and then organized an event to raise both money and awareness for their chosen cause. They chose to support the Boomer Esiason Foundation."
