The Problem

Presidential Student award Winners have raised $125,000 to donate to local and global charities already but they are ready to do it again. On January 16th 2016 in collaboration with Salem United Methodist Church they will host an Indian cultural evening at the church to raise funds for the charity “Imagine No Malaria” and for helping to rebuild homes for local disaster victims.
