Over the past few months the Germantown DECA team has been focused on helping out those in need. In late October, the chapter lead a food drive as a part of DECA's "trick or can" event. With the help of their fellow Germantown students, the event collected over 600 cans of food for those in need. In December, the chapter focused on making holiday cards for our veterans. Spending many hours after school, the chapter created 270 hand-made cards. While many in the chapter are responsible for the project's success, a special thank you goes out to Daniela Martinez and Vanessa Ivanov for organizing and leading both projects.
