Lunch to benefit Cambodian school

Wicked Local Cambridge
Posted May 05, 2009

Cambridge — All are welcome to join Cambridge Rindge and Latin School students and teachers at a benefit lunch Saturday, May 9, at 11:30 a.m. at the Elephant Walk restaurant at 2067 Mass. Ave.

Tickets are available at www.elephantwalk.com. Local luminaries will be at the event, including new school Superintendent Dr. Jeff Young, CRLS Principal Dr. Christopher Saheed, and MIT Professor and author Dr. Alan Lightman. Proceeds will support their trip to Cambodia for service learning projects and for the dedication of the Cambridge School.

The Cambridge School for Cambodia opened last winter near Phnom Penh. Cambridge students and families, with the help of Cambridge businesses, universities and nonprofit organizations, raised enough money last year to build a school named for the city. For more information, visit www.cambcamb.org.
