Adam Cerda recognized by McClintock

Adam Cerda, 10, a fifth-grade Bedell student received recognition from State Senator, Tom McClintock, for his efforts in collecting money for the New York Police and Fire departments. Cerda was touched by the terrorist attack in New York on September 11, and made room in his heart to find a way to help. He collected $300. by knocking on doors of his neighbors, friends, and relatives asking for their help.
