Sanford Middle School is very proud of 7th grader Josh Fogarty, who recently took orders for holiday treats, cookies, cupcakes and more. He baked up all of the goodies himself to raise money in need this holiday season. Josh used the money he earned to purchase toys for children through Toys for Tots, Salvation Army, Barbara Bush Children’s Hospital and St. Jude’s. He raised $350 and donated all of the gifts to children just before Christmas. Way to go, Josh!!
