On Aug. 28, students at Chesterbrook Academy Preschool in Ashburn Village presented a check donation of more than $500 to a representative from Make-A-Wish® Mid-Atlantic, Inc. at their school. Throughout the summer, students held several fundraisers to benefit the organization, including an art gallery, during which students sold original art in exchange for donations, as well as lemonade stands and bake sales. Through this initiative, students learned the importance of helping other kids, including how the funds they raised will help grant the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions.
