Hair Razing Fundraiser - Starts Today.

May 07, 2012
Minnekhada’s Hair Razing Event
As we all know, Cancer affects most people, whether it is personally or a friend or family member. Some of our students and teachers are dealing with the effects of cancer this year; some have dealt with it in the past. So our staff got together and decided to raise some funds for cancer research. The following teachers will either get their heads shaved or cut a significant amount off and donate it to companies that make wigs specifically for cancer patients who have lost their hair.
How can the Minnekhada community get involved? That translates into about $5.00 per person.
Our goal is to raise over $2600 before the end of May.
Each week we will tally up the donations and post the running total. In order for a teacher to shave their head we will need to raise a certain amount of money. The list is as follows. When the dollar amount is raised, the teacher listed will have their head shaved.
Mr. Wiebe   $200
Mr Nishimura   $400
Mr Craik   $600
Mr. Hunter   $800
Mr. Budai   $1000
Mr. Lore   $1200
Mr Van Staalduinen  $1400
Mr Hughes   $1600
Ms. Nishimura   $1800
Ms. Kossack   $2000
Ms.  Jackson   $2200
Mr. Erickson   $2400
Mr. Macmillan   $2600
Please bring your donations to your classroom teacher; they will be collecting money each day. If we all pitch in, we can help be a part of the fight against cancer. The added bonus will be a bunch of bald teachers.
