The month of May is one big party, starting with festivities on the North Coast! Astoria High School, Astoria Middle School, Seaside High School, and Warrenton High School presented their grants on Tuesday, May 6th at the Astoria Golf & Country Club. Nearly 100 student leaders from four grantmaking groups raised $63,000 this year that will be awarded to area non-profits and school programs.
"The grantmaking process challenged me to use my leadership and communication skills. Working with my friends made the experience even more meaningful as we worked hard, holding each other accountable and celebrating when we reached our goals. Leading and working as a team helped us create a more significant impact on our community." - Tayden, Astoria HS
