Thank you to the student council members at Robert Frost Elementary for holding Pajama Day yesterday to benefit our foundation. The students donated one dollar to wear PJs to school for the day! They raised $79. GREAT JOB, FRIENDS! Oops…they actually had Spirit Day not PJ Day. Either way, we are very grateful!
Wow! It’s going to be a great Drink for a Dream fundraising event on April 6th at Dempsey’s. Just check out some of the donations we already have received for our silent auction: Pies & Pints, Gresso’s, Silpada, ElemenOPillows, Scentsy and Columbus Museum of Art….just to name a few today. Keep checking our Facebook page…
It was two years ago today, Aug. 7th 2010, Faith lost her courageous battle with brian cancer. While she was sick, Faith asked me to not let people forget her…and this is why the FAITH PRUDEN MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIP was started.
If you know a graduating senior attending a Central Ohio School (public or private) that is a cancer survivor or is currently coping with a cancer diagnosis, encourage them to apply. This year’s deadline is March 31, 2015. For more information, click here.
Congratulations to our 2014, $1500 Scholarship winner, Angela Whipple. Angela is attending The Ohio State University studying Culinary Science. (She was awarded the scholarship in May.)
