Stepping up the Pace for Cystic FibrosisPosted On: 5/10/2013 |
Tabb High School's DECA Chapter participated in the Annual Peninsula Great Strides Walk for Cystic Fibrosis at William and Mary Hall on Saturday, May 4, 2013. The walk was the culmination of a year-long effort to create awareness and raise funds for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation on behalf of current THS DECA Senior, Amanda Varnes. In December, Tabb held their Fashion Show for a Cause which collected almost $1,500. They kept fundraising to bring their total to $2,500 to present on the day of the walk. Together, with other teams, the walk brought in over $25,000! Ninety percent of all donations go directly back to funding research to both control and cure this disease. Tabb DECA would like to thank Amanda's family, as well as all the generous donations they received this year. |
