McDowell readies to raise money to fight cancer

Students, teachers and parents at McDowell Elementary School will be raising money to fight cancer in support of the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society throughout the month of April.

Mrs. Park and Mrs Siegel are currently organizing the "Pennies for Pasta" campaign at the school.

The campaign will feature competition between classrooms, with the class that raises the most money receiving a pasta party, compliments of the Oliver Garden. The goal this year is to reach a total of $2,500. 

This Student Council-sponsored event will provide support for research into the prevention of childhood cancers.

If you are interested in participating or donating, call the school at (734) 374-1240.
