The Dallas Post Sunday, November 2, 2003 13 SCHOOL Ross students trick or treat for Unicef For the first time, students at Ross Elementary School in Sweet Valley collected funds for UNICEF, the United Na- tions fund for children. First grade classes organized a school-wide effort in which children carried special boxes to accept donations as they visited homes and businesses on Halloween night. The first graders will sort and count dona- tions when the boxes are turned in this week. UNICEF be- gan in 1950 in Philadelphia and since that time more than $188 million has been raised to provide medicine, better nu- trition, clean water, education and emergency relief to chil- dren around the world.
