Scarecrows for Good
Be the envy of your neighborhood while supporting your community!
The harvest scarecrow raffle has been a tradition at MVM for decades. In 2020, we put a new twist on the tradition by turning it into an Adolescent Community service project called Scarecrows for Good. Run by the 7th and 8th grade students in the Leadership Committee, Scarecrows for Good raises money for a charity selected by the AC class.
Each year, students in the Leadership Committee choose charities which are important to them. They research these charities and presentations are made to the rest of their class. The 7th and 8th graders then vote to select one charity. Each classroom at MVM creates a scarecrow to be raffled off.
This year, all money raised will go to the Nevada Humane Society in Carson City. For nearly a century, this non-profit organization has worked to unite people and animals, saving dogs, cats, and small mammals in need and finding them loving families, with nose-to-tail support from the moment animals enter its care until they find their fur-ever home.
