East Hampton High School Students Hosting Yard Sale To Raise Money For Trip To Senegal

East Hampton High School students will be hosting a yard sale on Saturday, Oct. 11 at East Hampton Middle School on 76 Newtown Lane from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

East Hampton High School has partnered with BuildOn.org to fight poverty and illiteracy throughout the world. In the summer of 2013, 20 students traveled to Senegal through the program. This February 2015, 19 students will be traveling to Nepal to build a primary school.

The proceeds from the yard sale will go towards building supplies for the school and travel expenses for the students participating.

While the students have been raising money since May, they still need to raise about $27,000.
