15 DENVER CATHOLIC | MAY 25-JUNE 7, 2019 apps and emails, among other elements of the technology world, the rest of the students spread out throughout the 72-building community, tackling the more than 2,500 condo units to collect donation boxes for Arc. "It's a huge task and something that made me a little bit nervous," said Ervin. "But it worked incredibly smooth and operated well and we got everything covered." The residents were able to simply set boxes of items they wanted to donate right outside their door, and the stu- dents walked up and down the hallways picking them up. The students collected more than 1,000 boxes, filling up two semi-trucks, in the span of a few hours. Although it wasn't Bishop Mache- beuf 's intention, Ervin scheduled the day as a fundraiser, so Arc gave credit of more than $1,000 back to the school — a dollar for each box collected. Ervin only heard positive feedback from the residents, "which is amazing when you're working with so many res- idents," she said. "I think our residents love that youthful energy around," she added, "just to see the promise of the future." The Arc employees were also grate- ful for the students' hard work. "They really appreciated the help of the students with that loading process," said Ervin. "They were overjoyed and amazed at the success of the event." Tami Bonner, General Manager at Windsor Gardens, said teaming up with the young people from Bishop Machebeuf was "a huge success and truly impacted the community in a positive way. "While we always enjoy impacting the greater community in any way we can, what a blessing it was to have this great community of young people from outside our walls come in and serve our people, while at the same time helping us serve Arc," said Bonner. " When different communities come together in this way, everyone is a winner," she said. "We are excited to see how this partnership can grow in the future." The Bishop Machebeuf students collected more than 1,000 boxes from residents at Windsor Gardens to donate to Arc Thrift Store. Congratulations to the St. Mary's Academy Class of 2019!
