The Lower and Middle School students of Bay View, from age 3 to 8^th grade, raised over $8400 and over 100 pairs of pajamas for the families of McAuley Village with their "Pay it Forward" project.. Throughout the month of November and December the girls, family and friends gave donations to benefit McAuley Village in Providence, RI, which provides on average 21 months of transitional housing for single parents and their children. The families residing at McAuley Village will have a much brighter Christmas thanks to the generosity of many.
