Pennies for Patients

By:

All of Fuentes came out to cheer on Ms. Butcher as she met the challenge of carrying $250 worth of pennies one mile around the track in support of our health initiative and to raise money for Pennies for Patients. All of our students and staff helped support the cause by donating money, walking with Ms. Butcher as she carried the very heavy load and cheering as we knew we could meet this challenge and help patients meet the challenges they face each day. We learned how many pounds of pennies are in $100 dollars and how many calories were burned during the event. We also all got in an exciting workout.
