Skyridge Middle School students (left to right) Lindsey Kosaki, Adam Ryan and Kate Fritz are helping with the peanut butter collection efforts organized by science teacher John Condon (background).

A jar of peanut butter seems like such a small thing to most of us. But to orphans eking out a daily existence in the filthy garbage dumps of Mexico, it’s a lifeline.

Students in John Condon’s seventh-grade science class at Skyridge Middle School are helping to contribute to this important nutritional need by collecting jars of peanut butter. These will be taken to Mexico by the brother of another Skryidge teacher, Gail Welsh.
