Girl Up Campaign for SchoolCycle
by: RAQUEL KNOPS
Girl Up McFarland is hosting a campaign to raise money and awareness surrounding girls' education. Did you know that 131 million girls are out of school around the world? There are many reasons for this, a few being that parents do not want their children traveling long, dangerous routes. Many girls are targeted by government groups, or suffer from sexual violence, abduction, intimidation, and harassment on their way to school. Girl Up is doing a fundraiser to raise money for bicycles so girls can get to school more safely. For this fundraiser, members of the Girl Up club will participate in a bike/run event on Wednesday, Nov. 4th, in which donors have the opportunity to pledge money to participants for every mile biked or quarter mile run, or a flat rate donation. We are also happy to take donations on this site. The proceeds will go to a Girl Up campaign called SchoolCycle, that focuses on providing bikes so girls can access education and stay in school.

Bill Garvey Memorial MEF/Athletic Annual Fundraiser
by: Kelsey Garvey
Each year the Bill Garvey Memorial Golf Outing raises money for the McFarland Education Foundation and McFarland Athletic Department. Due to the COVID pandemic, we’ve needed to restructure the way we can raise money for two amazing organizations. The money earned each year helps the MEF offer scholarships to hardworking seniors and grants to our district's teachers. The money raised supports equipment and uniform needs for our high school and middle school athletic teams, that go above and beyond our school’s budget. While we can’t golf together this year, we hope you will consider “chipping in” to support the students in our community. UPDATE 7/21/20: Due to our current situation, we have modified our sponsorship levels. We hope this time of uncertainty finds you well and thank you for supporting the MEF and McFarland Athletic Department. *Participant Golf Packages Include: One six-pack cooler bag, one divot tool, one towel, 1oz SPF 30 sunscreen, ball marker, two golf balls, 5 tees, 2 ball markers.

Memory Project
by: LINDY WIESMANN
The Memory Project is a charitable nonprofit organization that invites art teachers, art students, and solo artists to help cultivate global kindness by creating portraits for children around the world who have faced substantial challenges, such as violence, war, extreme poverty, neglect, and loss of parents. The participants create these portraits to help children feel valued and important, to know that many people care about their well-being, and to provide a special childhood memory in the future. Since 2004 the Memory Project has created more than 130,000 portraits for children in 47 countries. I am honored to announce that our very own McFarland Art Students will be crafting portraits for the Memory Project! In order to be involved in the program there is a cost of $15 for each portrait. I hope you will consider sponsoring one of the portraits for this amazing opportunity and international movement.

It Takes A Village to Educate: Together With Tanongou
by: ANGELA BAZAN
The World Geography class at McFarland High School has been learning about the village of Tanongou, in Benin, Africa. We are working to raise $3000 to support education in the village by sponsoring scholarships for students to attend school and learn a skill. We are also hoping to help fund the cost of birth certificates so students may continue their education. In Benin, students must take a test after 6th grade to be admitted to the next level. In order to take the test, they need a birth certificate, or they are not allowed to continue their education. As many are born in the village, a birth certificate is costly to obtain and travel to the city is difficult. We know that education is the key to success, and we are grateful for the education that we have. Please help us to spread that knowledge around the world- It truly takes a village to help another!

It's Electric: Light Up Tanongou!
by: ANGELA BAZAN
The World Geography Class at McFarland High School is working to raise money to place solar panels in the village of Tanongou- located in Benin, West Africa. While we are used to the daily luxuries that electricity provides, such as lights, cellphones, technology, and stoves for cooking, the village of Tanongou has no electricity at all. Students who go to school all day are expected to contribute to their family's survival by helping in the home and fields after school. By the time they are able to study in the evening, it is too dark, making it near impossible to do so. Tanongou is also located near the largest game preserve and natural waterfall in Africa. The ability to get tourists to come off the path and into the village would promote economic tourism and give jobs to the people of the village. Having electricity would encourage tourists to stay in the village and provide all with a better way of life. Our goal of raising $2230 would allow us to place six solar panels in the village and change the lives of the people in Tanongou forever. Please help us change the world!
