The big day is almost here! You've done so much to get ready for your Pennies for Patients program. Take just a few more steps, and your event will be off to an amazing start:
Send the parent letter home with students. (Hint: You received a packet of these with your Volunteer Kit.)
Share your school's promotional video and link it to your online giving page. (Video not ready yet? Share ours.)
Email local media to invite them to your Pennies for Patients kick-off event. They can help spread the good news!
Distribute student and classroom collection boxes to teachers.
Capitalize on your momentum! For example, list the campaign on your school sign or share the coin facts and jokes below with students.

Spare Change
Why do coins have ridges? Originally these were to protect against counterfeiting. Today's quarter has 119 ridges. Let's hope your students' collection boxes are filled with coins of all types!
Pennies & Punchlines
What breed of dog has the most coins? A bloodhound; it is always picking up cents.
Quick Question
What is an Honored Hero? An Honored Hero is a local student survivor of leukemia, lymphoma, or myeloma. Some schools write letters or create artwork for their Honored Heroes; these can be sent to your local chapter.
