Two Pembroke students raise more than $1,500 for Hurricane Dorian victims

Two Pembroke Elementary School students in Danbury have raised more than $1,500 to help victims of a devastating hurricane in the Bahamas.  Danbury Public School officials say the 4th graders, J.D. Andrews and Alex Ascone, set up buckets in each classrooms and urged their classmates to donate pennies to the cause.  Over four days, the “penny wars” resulted in a sizeable donation for the American Red Cross. J.D. said Hurricane Dorian victims need stuff to survive right now, saying they can rebuild later, but now they need food and water.  Alex says it’s working together just a little bit to make a difference.  The pair are writing a letter to the Red Cross to accompany the donations.
