PJ Day For The Kids!
PJ Day for the Kids is Friday, December 13th! We are hoping you will consider joining in!
PJ Day is a way for schools, businesses and organizations to come together to show support for kids fighting cancer at Connecticut Children’s. On PJ Day people all across the state wear PJs in solidarity with patients who have no choice but to wear theirs, as they undergo treatment for prolonged periods of time. Participants are asked to voluntarily donate $1 or more in exchange for this privilege. Watch the following videos to see why you should join in PJ Day:
To date $640,000 has been raised at 360 schools and 190 businesses! We hope you will help us make this year’s PJ Day for the Kids the most successful yet!

Toys Drive For Those in Need
This year we are holding a toy drive to collect toys for those children in need of some holiday cheer. If you will be doing some holiday shopping from now until December 14, 2019, please purchase a toy and contribute to our toy drive. The toys must be new and unwrapped. The toys can be dropped off in our main office or in Mrs. Horbachuk’s 5th-grade classroom, Room 204. Your kindness will be greatly appreciated.
