A release by Almond Acres says the students raised a total of $520.32; the students sold bracelets and hosted a “Be The Change” coin drive during September.
Administrator at Almond Acres, Wendy Woodard, said “Actively participating in childhood cancer awareness month presented an excellent opportunity for our students to recognize and discover that each individual carries an invisible backpack filled with experiences and challenges we may not be aware of.”
