Lewis Raises Money for Trip Abroad


Leah Lewis, a Jr. at Greenville High School, recently held a quilt raffle in order to help raise money for a trip to Greece, Italy, and Spain that she will be going on with other Spanish class students in June 2012. Leah is excited to announce the winner of the quilt, Rose Mathews of Columbus, Ohio. Leah would like to thank her Grandma Rose Lewis of Hollansburg, Ohio for making the quilt and donating it for the raffle.

Leah, along with her family, has done other fundraising events such as a garage sale and selling homemade decorated flip flops. She has not quite made her goal and plans on doing a “swim-a-thon” this winter. It is important to her to help raise the money for the trip and not take for granted the awesome opportunity she has to go on this trip and experience different cultures.

Leah not only works at Readmore’s Hallmark, but is a scholar athlete, a member of the swim team, and recently completed the training to become a Candy Striper at Wayne Hospital. Leah would like to sincerely thank her friends, family, and community for all their support.
