During the months of November and December, various clubs from South Effingham High School participated in a boxed Christmas for children within Effingham County.  

Headed up by the Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA), the participation in the service event included Family Community Career Leaders of America (FCCLA), Future Educators of America (FEA), National Honor Society (NHS), and Technology Student Association (TSA).  

Club members worked in pairs or small groups to purchase items that would fill a box measuring 11x17 and 9 inches deep.  

All together these five clubs provided Christmas presents for 42 children in our local community.

A special thank you is sent to all those members, advisors, and parents who shared in this incredible Christmas event.
