The March Miracle event at Norup helps to raise money for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. The money raised helps fund cancer research for a cure to leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin’s disease and melanoma. This is only one of many great causes. Your assignment for this month is to write a one to two page paper on an organization (other than our March Miracles event) that uses a physical activity to help raise funds. Include: the name of the organization; the activity the participants do; why you chose this event and why the money is raised.
Criteria
- Papers should be of high quality, informative, 1 – 2 pages in length.
- Double check your spelling.
- A typed paper is preferred.
This homework is due on Tues., Jan. 13th. You may turn it in before the due date, but it will be late (lower grade) if not turned in when you come to class.
