When teacher Heidi Hawley's son joined the Air Force, her students found a new mission- turning leftover Halloween candy into care packages for troops overseas!
"I love teaching kids that they can make a difference!" says Heidi with her son, Dominic
On November 1st, as the last of the Halloween decorations came down at Myers Elementary in Grand Blanc, Michigan, brightly wrapped donation boxes began appearing in first- and second-grade classrooms.
"Here's mine!" a little girl announced, pouring her bag of leftover candy into the box.
"Will Dominic get some of this?" a first grader asked his teacher, Heidi Hawley.
"He sure will," Heidi smiled. After all, her son Dominic was the inspiration for her new project: Treats for Troops.
