St. Katharine Drexel Christmas.

Students at St. Katharine Drexel School, Sioux Falls, listened and learned from a story their principal shared with them. After hearing the story of a boy who gave his own toys to another child who had nothing for Christmas, the students at St. Katharine Drexel School wanted to help others and launched a spur-of-the-moment toy drive. The students brought their very gently used toys (some new) to be donated to the St. Vincent de Paul, the Salvation Army and their parish outreach program for families in need. The response and effort overwhelmed the principal. The toys were packaged up and delivered to the aid ministries for distribution before Christmas.
