North Jr. to Donate to Chemo Buddies
Friday, May 17
9 a.m.
North Junior High School, 15325 Highway 41 N.
Going through chemotherapy is definitely not easy, but students at North Junior High School are doing their part to make it a little better. Tomorrow, North Jr. will host an assembly where students will present more than 500 port pillows and a $525 monetary donation to Chemo Buddies.
The port pillows will be used by cancer patients receiving chemotherapy who need a soft, protective layer next to their port sites while they ride in a car and wear a seat belt. Students have sewn designs on the pillows and cut fleece rectangles for the back.
This year marks the sixth year that the school has partnered with Chemo Buddies.
