Thank You for Your Support of Our Leukemia & Lymphoma Society Fundraiser!
Dear PS 101 Families,
Thank you for your generosity and support of our Blood Cancer United (formerly known as the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society) Fundraiser. With your kindness and willingness to give, our school community came together to support an important cause while teaching our students the value of compassion, service, and helping those in need.
Through this fundraiser and the student presentations, our children learned about the importance of health research, the power of giving back, and how working together can make a meaningful difference, all while having fun and learning along the way.
We are proud to share that the PS 101 school community raised $6,934.63 in support of this cause!
Your continued partnership and support help make PS 101 a caring, connected, and service-minded community. Thank you for standing with us and for helping show our students that kindness and generosity truly matter.
Sincerely,
Gregg Korol
