Trenton FCCLA & Ector Beta Club - Members of the Trenton Family, Career and Community Leaders Association (FCCLA) issued a friendly challenge to the Ector Beta Club to see who could collect the most for the Rainbow Rooms. When the two schools met at a basketball game, the school who won the challenge would get to hear the other team’s cheerleaders lead a cheer for their school. The Trenton students traveled to the Fannin County Children’s Center to get a tour of the facility, which includes one of the Rainbow Rooms. After seeing the room stocked with new clothing, shoes, diapers, coats and other items, the youth asked about what the current needs of the program were. Armed with the wish list, students from both schools went to work collecting diapers, cleaning supplies, clothing for toddlers, shoes, gift cards and cash. Trenton FCCLA won the challenge by collecting an estimated $2,500 worth of supplies. Their contribution included $140 in gift cards to area stores and more than $700 in cash. To make good on the friendly bet, Ector cheerleaders led a cheer for Trenton during halftime of the basketball game. For the Trenton students, this effort was service-learning project. Student leaders inspired others in the Trenton schools and community to contribute to the effort by quoting Martin Luther King, Jr. who once said “Anybody can be great because anybody can serve.”
