Christmas Program 

Campus Ministry
 

Students are pictured wrapping gifts in the Preston LeJeune gymnasium for the EDW Christmas program. Seniors delivered the gifts on December 20 to nine head start programs in Lafourche parish with around 20 students in each class. Items purchased were costumes, computer center items, and new books for resource centers. Over 180 students received a special Christmas gift to leave at school or to take home.

 

The school also adopted five families in the Thibodaux Toy Drive program and helped four families through St. Joseph's Closet.

Campus Minister Scott Dupont said, "Our Christmas Giving Program was a tremendous success. Our students collected over $11,488. Our faculty and staff supported 9 families with a total of 44 people. Thank you for your overwhelming generosity in making this year's program a great success."
