With only one day of publicity this sum is mind-blowingly impressive. The generosity of BHS students and families is unique. I have not seen young people so consistently ready to give working in some other communities. <br><br>Whether it's a blood drive, a service event, Holiday Meal (coming soon on December 11!) or a relief campaign BHS students are demonstrating inspiring levels of altruism. Indeed, you could see tears of joy developing in the eyes of a few of our Pakistani students who have been working on the campaign. <br><br>So thank you for your support. If you'd still like to donate towards American Refugee Committee's efforts to bring relief to the people of Pakistan please do so at <a href="http://www.firstgiving.com/bhsforpakistan">http://www.firstgiving.com/bhsforpakistan</a> or write a check to the "BHS Global Relief Fund" and submit it to the Leadership Office. Gifts from Peets coffee will be given to those who donate $20 or more, but of course any donation helps. <br><br><br>Sincerely,<br>Chris Young</span><div><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: rgb(51, 51, 153); "><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; ">_________________<o:p></o:p></span></font></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: rgb(51, 51, 153); "><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; ">Diane Douglas, Marguerite Fa-Kaji and Pat Anderson are the parent-volunteer facilitators of the etree; please direct any questions to them at </span></font><a href="mailto:bhs-owner@lmi.net" title="mailto:bhs-owner@lmi.net"><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 153); "><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; ">bhs-owner@lmi.net</span></font></span></a><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; ">. </span></font></span><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 153); "><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; "><o:p></o:p></span></font></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: rgb(51, 51, 153); "><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; ">BHS etree archives: </span></font><a href="http://lists.lmi.net/pipermail/bhs/" title="http://lists.lmi.net/pipermail/bhs/"><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 153); "><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; ">http://lists.lmi.net/pipermail/bhs/</span></font></span></a><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; ">; BHS PTSA website: </span></font><a href="http://www.bhs.berkeleypta.org/" title="http://www.bhs.berkeleypta.org/"><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 153); "><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; ">http://www.bhs.berkeleypta.org/</span></font></span></a><font class="Apple-style-span" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; ">.
