Wellington Christian School’s high school SWAP (Students with a Purpose) team, along with staff coordinators Kathy Britt and Janet Ratty, recently put a “no school day” to practical use when they volunteered at the Locks of Love main headquarters in West Palm Beach.
Locks of Love is a public nonprofit organization that provides hairpieces to financially disadvantaged children under the age of 21 suffering from long-term medical hair loss. WCS students sorted hundreds of envelopes containing donated ponytails and braids from around the world and helped with computer-generated thank-you cards to donors.
For more information about donating or volunteering, contact Pia McCarthy at (561) 833-7332 or info@locksoflove.org.
Wellington Christian School has been offering an education to students in the western communities for more than 30 years. The school has grown over the years and currently offer early childhood from 3 years old all the way through 12th grade.
The school’s focus remains to be Christ-centered with a college preparatory academic curriculum.
