MOLINE, Illinois - Students at Moline High School kicked off their annual Share Joys fundraising campaign with a donut eating contest on November 28.
The event raised more than $12,500 dollars. It is the first of many events that will take place from November 28 through December 7.
The money raised goes towards buying clothes for students and children in the Moline community who need them.
