								<p>"I saw how their houses were destroyed and I saw how people were hurt," said Whitt. "A lot of people lost their families."</p>
															<p>Wanting to help, she expressed her ideas in a letter to the principal and things took off from there, turning into a school-wide movement.</p>
																							<p>Woodbrook Elementary connected with Wisdom High School in Texas, a school located in a high-poverty neighborhood and badly damaged by the storm. </p>
																							<p>For a few weeks, a water jug has been sitting at the school's entrance and kids have been dropping in money to help.</p>
																							<p>"We raised money and gave our ice cream money just to give it to the people in Texas," said Keywan Carter, a student at Woodbrook.</p>
																							<p>Jamee Dion, a teacher at Woodbrook says the students raised almost $500 just from donating their allowance money or skipping out on ice cream on Fridays.</p>
																							<p>Woodbrook students will present a check, perform a song they wrote, and gift students in Texas with a collection of uplifting artwork they created. The two schools will connect through Skype on Friday at 8:30 a.m.</p>
