Elementary
Pennies for Patients
by Joyce Songer
February 03, 2010
Ell-Saline Elementary students are collecting pennies, other change, and paper money for the Pennies for Patients campaign. The campaign supports research, and patients and their families as they are going through treatment for leukemia, lymphoma, and other forms of blood cancer. More than 75 cents of every dollar collected goes straight to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society programs. Money will be collected for two more weeks until February 12. $151.74 was collected the first week. We are hoping to make our goal of $350 by then. Please consider supporting this worthy cause. You may stop by the school office with your donation. Thank you to all who have given.
