Fundraiser

We participated in a large fundraiser last night for construction of a local skatepark. It was heartening to see so many come out in support of a student-organised group in pursuit of a goal that will benefit not only themselves, but other people they will not even know.

The dedication impressed me, both that of the youth, and of the adults who support them. I see the activity as an affirmation of faith in the next generation, reinforcing the community to illustrate the Social Contract theory.
