91快活林鈥檚 Community Service Organization and business student entrepreneur group The SPARK raised $5,000 to donate to Camp Hope.
The group used a variety of fundraisers including a silent auction, parents鈥 night out, Sonic drink deliveries and t-shirt sales to reach their goal.
Barton Instructor and Coordinator of Business and Accounting Kathy Boeger is the sponsor for the group and said the students surpassed their initial goal by $1,000.
鈥淭hey were a group of go-getters with huge hearts and relentless drive to meet their goal,鈥 she said. 鈥淓ach one of them gives us a reason, just like all of our Barton graduates, to be Barton proud.鈥
