Fundraisers included a $1 jeans day, $1 ugly Christmas sweater contest, classroom Christmas carolers, with an option for Grinch Insurance, and a change stall. With the collected funds, students and advisors organized a field trip to the local Walmart where they purchased three truckloads of toys for local families and children in need. Vantage staff and students thank Wal-Mart and Lee Kinstle GM Sales &amp; Service, which provided transportation of the toys to the Salvation Army. The Vantage Interact club is a student-led club that encourages leadership and responsibility, promotes student collaboration among various labs and home-schools, and supports student civic involvement to benefit area communities.
