Let's Stomp Out Cancer With Purple Feet!!
Our purple feet are lining the hallways here at Shallowford Falls as we continue our "Stomp Out Cancer" Campaign this month. We have a goal of $8,000 for Relay for Life this year. We are currently at $7,800. We are posing a challenge to each grade to cover the halls with purple feet. Each foot costs $1. We'll write in your child's name on the foot and post them outside his/her hallway. We'll see how far each grade gets and the winning grade will get a special treat. Help us to fight cancer with a donation to the American Cancer Society. Your donation is tax deductible and will help our Relay for Life team meet our goal. We will be collecting money for the "Stomp Out Cancer" Campaign through this Friday, April 20. Thanks for your support.
