WHY DO YOU GIVE TO THE ANNUAL FUND?

Everybody gives for different reasons. Please take a minute to view this video, put together by 7th grade student Joey Ead, and parent Sara Ead, and then take a minute to think about what it is about Amana that makes you want to support the work we're doing with and for students.
