The Youth in Philanthropy group and the Environmental Club at Arthur Meighen School in Portage are helping people remember the high school that was. 

Funded by the federal government and the Community Foundation of Portage and District, the two groups have partnered to build a memorial garden. 

 

Anneliese Schoppe of the philanthropy group is grateful for the foundation's support, saying this isn't the first time they've help her group. 

 

Schoppe explains they're also hoping to invest in a memorial plaque for the school. 

 

The two groups have a budget of one thousand dollars for the project.
