Beaverton High School works to grant local Make-A-Wish dreams

To make money for their annual Jam the Dam! event, Beaverton High School students will seek sponsorships and donations for upcoming silent auction, concession sales and other promotional activities. All the items will be sold or auctioned off during Jam the Dam! on Feb. 19. The annual basketball game/fundraising event collects money for the Make-A-Wish Foundation. The community’s goal is to raise $20,000 to grant wishes for local kids.
