Students and teachers who created The Great Mills High School Philippine Relief Fund, including, from left, seated, Maria Weber, Wanda Duran, Tracey Heibel, Ed Williams and Jill Spencer and, standing, Marc Espinoza, Derrick Petett, Marc Roper, Kate Rocheteau, Roi "Minyong" Frias, Xtian De Ramos and Dean "Ton" Manuel gather at the school. The group raised $667 for Philippine relief efforts to assist with the recovery from several typhoons this year. Relief fund members put donation cans in prominent locations throughout the building and made daily announcements on Hornet TV asking for any change the GMHS students and faculty could afford to give. The equivalent of the money collected is 33,385 pesos and will feed 2,637 families for two weeks, according to a statement. The money will be sent to ABS-CBN Foundation.
