Korean Night and Ferry Accident Fundraiser

Good Morning Williston!

As many of you may already know, there was a huge accident in Korea about a week ago.
A ferry, carrying a total of 400 passengers with 325 high school students, sank on its way to Jeju island, on the south coast of Korea. About 150 students are still in the ferry, presumably already dead. Every hour more dead bodies are being found, and as you can tell, this is a very hard time for every Korean. Luckily, no Korean in our school has been directly affected by the accident—but we all know of someone who was.

Tomorrow night at the Korean Cultural Night, we are going to have a Moment of Silence to commemorate this accident and wish the best for the survivors of the terrible event. We will be selling Korean snacks, and accepting donations as well, so any support would mean a lot to us. The collected money will be used to help out the restoration process.

This is a way to show our respect and love to people who have had great losses—let’s make sure that we show the best of Williston out there tomorrow.

Thank you and have a great day.

Sincerely,
Hannah Lee ‘15
