Athena Home and School has entered the Kraft Project Play competition to support the building of a new playground at our school. Check out our profile here: http://kraftprojectplay.com/en/nominations/profile/athena-consolidated-school-1/

If successful, it would mean we would receive $250,000 to build a new playground for the children of Athena Consolidated School and the greater community.

But, in order to make the TOP 4 on July 26th, we need your help. To get into the top 4, we need to show Kraft that our community supports this project and how much we all care about our school.

So please share the Kraft Project Play Athena page on facebook and twitter (make sure it’s tagged as public). Be sure to include the hashtag below so Kraft can see our school and community spirit!
