This year, we supported Spread the Net, a charity<br \/>\nthat helps prevent deaths caused by malaria by distributing bed nets to people<br \/>\nin Africa. We have broken the record for North Toronto\u2019s Charity Week by<br \/>\nraising over FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS! YEAH! WAY TO GO NT!!<\/p>\n<p>Charity Week 2012 was much different than the past Charity<br \/>\nWeeks for me. This is mainly because I was never involved in Charity Week<br \/>\nbeyond planning for my homeform event. Then here I was, in the centre of it<br \/>\nall, supposedly in charge of this massive annual event. To be honest, I was<br \/>\nslightly overwhelmed. Any time I heard anybody say, \u201cCharity Week 2012,\u201d or<br \/>\n\u201cSpread the Net,\u201d those words triggered mild nervousness and butterflies in my<br \/>\nstomach until the last day of Charity Week 2012. I never realized how much work<br \/>\nis put into Charity Week each year and I\u2019m glad that I lived through it before<br \/>\nI left high school. Yes, it was a lot of work, but if I had the chance to do it<br \/>\nall over again, there isn\u2019t a single doubt in my mind that I would love to.<br \/>\nThat surreal feeling I felt, when everything that we planned clicked into<br \/>\nplace, was the greatest. It was definitely more rewarding than any well-written<br \/>\nmath or science test!<\/p>\n<p>Finally, I want to end my thought with many thanks to a<br \/>\nbunch of people, as without them, Charity Week 2012 wouldn\u2019t have been<br \/>\npossible. Firstly, I want to thank my awesome JVP, Darci Brill. Darci, you were<br \/>\nso motivated, always asking for new tasks. You\u2019re a great JVP and I hope that<br \/>\nyou had just as much fun as I did working on Charity Week. Thank you all the<br \/>\ncommittee members, especially the heads and the assistant heads for making my<br \/>\njob easier with your creativity and enthusiasm. Thank you Fashion Show Neverland<br \/>\nfor an amazing show. Thank you Ms. Hayden; you are a<em> wonder-woman<\/em>, and I truly mean it when I say that all the future JVP\u2019s and SVP\u2019s are lucky to be alongside of you to plan Charity Week. Finally, as cheesy as it is, thank you all the students and staff for being so spirited and making Charity Week 2012 the best Charity Week that NT has seen yet. I learned so much and I know that it will always be one of my most memorable<br \/>\nexperiences in high school.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Frank Hyun &nbsp; Rick Mercer\u2019s personal thanks marked the jump start of the phenomenal Charity Week 2012.
