The students
at the Wellington School play on a playground that is dedicated in the
memory of Caroline Pryce Walker, a student at the school who died of
cancer. In her honor, the YFJ team decided to work to help cancer
research.
The team had
Lindsay Wientraub come speak to the group. Ms. Wientraub is the
Fundraising/Special Events Coordinator at the Ohio State University
Medical Center. Together, Ms. Wientraub and the students came up with a
plan to help to help fund patient care and research for a cure. The
students also wanted to educate other students about cancer prevention.
Through the students’ efforts, they were able to raise $221.98 and
donate it to the James Cancer Research Center at The Ohio State
University |
