Raises over $2,100 – Donates money in honor of Nick
The middle school students at A-C Central (grades 5-8) have raised $2,123.14 for the children at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee. This is the largest amount ever raised! This hospital treats children with cancer and other catastrophic diseases, regardless of financial need, and conducts research to find cures. There were 51 students participating this year. That is outstanding for a school of our size. Over the last eleven years, A-C Central has raised $13,449.10 for this great cause. The Math-A-Thon sponsor is Carrie Jo Donnan.
This year, we are donating the money in honor of Nick, a boy from Virginia who is currently in the midst of treatment at St. Jude’s. We are inspired by his strength and courage and wish him all the best in the treatments that he faces in the days ahead.
