MHS Student Council held its annual shopping night for underprivileged families in Morrison. This is a favorite activity and tonight we shopped for 25 kids in the community. Our members raise funds to be able to do this by working concessions throughout volleyball and basketball seasons and doing a large project for Custom Pak. Helping to make the holidays brighter for many families is a project our kids take great pride in!
