Students Jump for Richmond Animal League

CIEE, Council International Educational Exchange, a non-profit sponsor of high school exchange students is working with Richmond Animal League (RAL) to raise monies for their non-euthanizing organization that helps homeless cats and dogs.

CIEE has students from Brazil, S Korea, China, Thailand, Czech, Slovakia, Spain, Germany and more in Richmond and surrounding county high schools this school year.? Each student is encouraged to participate in volunteering.? The students agreed in unison that the homeless animals need a chance!? Whether a cat or dog,? the kids feel that saving their lives and providing hope is a must.

On Sunday, April 29th, at Washington Henry Elementary School's annual Earth Day Festival, the exchange students, their host siblings, host parents and friends will JUMP ROPE raising funds for RAL's animals.? Come and join the students in jumping, pledging as little or as much as you like knowing that with each jump, RAL will raise monies for their dogs and cats.

Contact Becky Bell, local coordinator for CIEE, to pledge or sign to jump on Sunday April 29th from 1-5 pm at 804-928-1948 or ccfc2355@msn.com
