The "We Are Love" international project is created and supported by Free The Children, a well-known organization striving to better the lives of those in need in other parts of the world. We hope to sell pins with matching cards with pre-designed quotes around the stem sentences of "Love is..." to bring a truly special meaning to this year's Valentines' Day. All proceeds will be sent to an Adopt a Village community of our choice to improve people's lives with clean water, shelter, education, and more.

During the week of Valentine's Day McMath's Interact Club hosted Free The Children's "We Are Love" project. We fundraised close to $260 by selling pins and corresponding cards for $2 each with a free baked good. Each pin and card promoted an aspect of love that also correlated to an aspect of Free The Children's vision towards helping others in need. For example, "Love is Learning, and you're my favourite subject." associates love with the importance of providing education to children all over the world. McMath's Interact Club and this project committee is proud to say that this event was a great success!
