Hanover Legacy Project
What is a Legacy Project
"Legacy projects are creative endeavors with the intention to leave something meaningful to those who come after us. Often, they are tangible representations of our life experiences or lessons we want to share with the next generations. Legacy Projects connect the dots and create a bigger generational story of change for the well-being of lives, communities, and the planet. Connect, create, change with a legacy project."
Every year, The 7th grade Hanover Academy students choose an organization they would like to support. Students raise funds through fundraisers such as bake sales, dodgeball tournaments, can drives and more. Scroll down to view past projects the students have completed.
