SHS Students Give Back through Outreach Center

SKANEATELES, NY (December 20, 2017) – For the second year in a row, six Skaneateles High School students have adopted a family at Christmas through the Skaneateles Outreach Center.

 

Students Gavin Cheney, Alex Goethe, Brendan Powers, Andrew Neumann, Max Wamp, and Ryan Willard have been working for over two months doing various jobs to raise money in order to go on a shopping trip for their adopted family. 

 

The boys kept busy winterizing a family’s home, stacking wood, doing yard work, and cleaning, earning the money needed to give a family in need a special Christmas.

 

Jacque McConnaghy, the Skaneateles Outreach Coordinator, says that these six Skaneateles students stepped up to become the only group of students in twelve years that have adopted a family.

 

The group plans to continue the tradition through their remaining years in high school.
