29 years. It is a great program and bene�ts an
outstandingorganization in the American Heart Association. Your

the Fundraising Campaign for the American Heart Association.Your
child does not have to raise money to participate in the class
event. Last year we raisedover $8,000! Our goal this year is to get

different names.
In order for the kids to win the prizes they must collect
donations. As a bonus, The Top 5Fundraisers will win special prizes
that I personally hand out.If you have any questions please feel
