Dear Students, Parents, Faculty and Friends, Churchville Elementary School has decided it is going to make a difference in the lives of children with cancer! It is easy for you to be part of our goal and this life-changing experience. We hope that you will join in our efforts. Our school fundraising goal is to raise $1000 for ALSF by hosting special school events the week of May28th -May 31st 2013. We are counting on support from students, families and faculty that will help us to achieve our fundraising goal. We will host a lemonade stand, lemon cut out sales and a Faculty Dress-Down-Day fundraiser all during the week of Field Day scheduled for May 31st, rain date June 7th. A former Hillcrest student, Sean Baron, gives us personal motivation for wanting to help raise critical funding for childhood cancer research. When Sean was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in 2007 his family was devastated. Sean underwent multiple surgeries, chemotherapy and intensive rehab to regain normal walking ability. Sean and his family are grateful for his continuing good health due to advances in research and medicine over the last 30 years. Sean is now a junior at Carnegie Mellon University thanks to successful treatment for his disease. Raising money is a powerful way of fighting cancer and a simple way everyone can help. Together we can be part of eradicating childhood cancer for good. You can learn more about the grants that have already made a difference in the lives of children with cancer by visiting www.alexslemonade.org. Your contribution can make Lemonade Days 2013 (nationwide June 7th- 9th) become a milestone year. We thank you for your support! Sincerely, The Faculty, Students and Parents of Churchville Elementary School Council Rock School District
