After the September 11th attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon, several students at Broadmoor Junior High School began talking about what they could do to help. On September 12th, these students began taking up a collection to donate to the Red Cross. Two students went home and told their parents about the collection. Each parent began helping in their own special way. Pastor Robert Brite of First Christian Church took up a collection in his church the following Sunday which he brought to the school. Another parent, Zelma Turney-Hall, began calling area businesses to see what they would donate for this cause. The outpouring from area businesses was overwhelming to say the least. Friday, October 12th, a dance was held with all proceeds going to help the Red Cross. The donations from area businesses were used for our students to enjoy during the dance or as items to be raffled. Thanks to these area businesses, almost $600 was raised during the dance. Broadmoor students have collected a total of $3800 to help the victims of the September 11th attack. We would like to take a moment to thank these area businesses for their generous donations:
