GCS Volunteer of the Month for February 2009

When Monica Frye found out about Oak Ridge Elementary’s community involvement project, she jumped in with both feet. Little did she know the “Coins from Colts” program would be so successful.

Every day, Frye came to the school to collect and sort the donations. Frye tracked each classroom’s donations on a spreadsheet so students could follow along

Through “Coins from Colts,” the school raised more than $15,000 for the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation. With Frye’s hard work, the students also learned how a little change can go a long way.

As Volunteer of the Month, Frye was recognized at the school. Frye received a gift basket and $25 gift card from American Express, which has generously partnered with Guilford County Schools to support the volunteer recognition program. Her photo will hang at the district’s central offices.
