DATA Pennies for Patients
DATA is partnering with LLS (Leukemia & Lymphoma Society) to collect pennies (or coins and bills) to help raise money for childhood blood cancer patients and research. Each student will be receiving coin boxes to take home to put their donations in.
Students can use the box to collect spare change, donations from family/friends, etc. They are to bring in what they can, because everything helps. Our goal is to raise $2,000. The donation drive starts on: Monday March 2nd and ends on March 13th, 2 weeks - to raise $$ for a great cause! The top 2 Classes earn a Pizza Party!!
