Check out the “wish list” outside the counseling office.
*NJHS members will collect/count them in Advisory, then build a tree of hope in the “atrium”
*Not only are you helping other people during the holidays but you are making yourself feel
good when doing this.
*We do this because not everyone is fortunate like us with a home or daily meal.
