TERRY FOX RUN 2013

Posted on September 23, 2013 by Ms. Watt | 2 comments

Nelson students participated in our annual Terry Fox Run on Friday. After only a week of fundraising, bringing in Toonies for Terry & collecting pledges, we raised $1430 for the Terry Fox Foundation!! Incredible!! Our fundraising in the last couple years has been: 2011 ~ $502 & 2012 ~ $642. We’ve more than doubled our last year’s total & this year’s goal! That’s the highest total that’s been collected since I started at Nelson 6 years ago & I’m so proud of all of your hard work!
