WALTHAM -- A group of Waltham High School students presented checks Friday to five nonprofit organizations they selected to fund using grant money from the Massachusetts Service Alliance.
The students are part of the Waltham Action Research Project, a pilot course at the high school in which six students run a philanthropy, establishing community service goals and reviewing outside grant proposals.
WARP is called a 'service learning' class because the students learn about community service by actively taking part. It was funded by the Massachusetts Service Alliance through a $15,000 grant administered by the Waltham Partnership for Youth. "
