During the week leading up to Valentine’s Day, the Helping Hands club decided to give students the opportunity to buy a candy, and send it to one of their friends or valentines as an act of kindness. Not only was it nice to send a candy to your friends the day before vacation, but the proceeds went towards The Center for Victims of Torture, a charity that helps people with different issues such as self hatred and chronic pain. The goal of this charity was to “restore the dignity of  the human spirit.”
