Description: Pennies for PatientsThe last three years, North Iowa Schools have sponsored the “Pennies for Patients” Leukemia and Lymphoma Society Fund Drive.  We have had very successful campaigns where we raised an average of $3000 each year.  We have set a lofty goal of raising $4000 for this year.  The fundraising this year will run from Monday, February 14th to Friday, March 11th.

 

Childhood leukemia and lymphoma are the most common types of cancer that face young children and adolescents.   Fortunately, they are also some of the most treatable cancers if detected early.  Funding is needed in a great many ways to help research these cancers and also to offer support for the children and families that must deal with the disease.    It is our hope that North Iowa Schools and communities can once again demonstrate a caring spirit and help in this effort.

 

Each class will have a canister in which students may donate any pennies or other change to the project. This year the younger students will be provided a donation box to aid in their collecting.  The grades that raise the most funds will be rewarded with a pizza party and also if individual classes raise at least $100 then their class will be awarded a pennant.  Bronze pennants will be given for $100 raised, Silver pennants for $200, and Gold pennants for $300 per classroom.
