Christmas gifts | Sahana Narayanan

I am grateful to be celebrating an “East Coast Christmas” this year, but at the same time, I know that I am extremely lucky. As part of our advisory tradition, we participated in an annual charity event called “Adopt a Family,” where we bought holiday gifts for an underprivileged family that lacked basic necessities. I am grateful that we’re given the opportunity to attend a school like Harker. Despite all the trials and tribulations we seemingly undergo as teenagers, we still lead relatively normal lives. As educated and well-off members of society, it is our duty to contribute our time and energy to our community, especially in this season of giving.
