One of the Casady rain barrels will be a grateful gift to Centennial High School Community Garden. Students and teachers traced and decorated 1,100 hands, a matching donation of $2,900 through the Bezos Foundation to the Global Youth Service Day Project facilitated by YAC Junior Project Chairs, Gabrielle M. and Mallory W. Casady-OKC Caring Hands. The total matching donation of over $4,800 will provide resources and programs to teens in Nicaragua and Indonesia to provide them tools to live on more than $1.90 a day.
