Pennies for Patients

In honor of Coey Collard, Kim's class is leading a fundraising event for the Leukemia Lymphoma Society.  All proceeds are used to support cancer patients and to work toward a cure.  The L&L Society helps conduct what is called Pennies for Patients.  Coey's class would like this to become an act of compassion for the entire community rather than a school or classroom contest.  We are working to make connections with the other school buildings to see if they will participate also.  Here are the rough plans:
  • $10,000 goal - pretty lofty
  • February 14th assembly to launch Pennies for Patients
  • Collect money February 14- 28th
  • Special days to highlight L&L (hat day, PJ's, jerseys, Penny for Your Thoughts)
