BCSC CELEBRATES RILEY WEEK SEPTEMBER 8th-12th
The CHAIN Link student government at Brownsburg High School is once again coordinating a week-long, corporation-wide fundraiser for Riley Children's Hospital. Last year, CHAIN Link encouraged Brownsburg students and their families to contribute over $16,000 during this one week.  The Brownsburg High School student leaders are looking to make "Riley Week" even bigger this year. 

All of the student efforts during Riley Week lead up to the "Riley Red-out" at the BHS varsity football game vs Avon, September 12th at 7pm. Special Riley red t-shirts will be sold through BHS CHAIN Link over the next week (pictured above).   

 

Community support of Riley Week and other fundraisers throughout the year has made BCSC a Riley Miracle Corporation again this year.  Thank you!

DELAWARE TRAIL 4th GRADER RAISES MONEY FOR GLEANERS
Last year Mason Tibbs and his family "adopted" a family during the holiday season.  That experience led Mason to look for more ways to help others.  He decided to design a t-shirt to raise awareness for childhood hunger.  The proceeds from the shirt have already helped Mason donate over $275 to Gleaners Food Bank.  Watch for Mason and his family during this Thursday's telethon on RTV6.  CLICK HERE to order a shirt and read more about Mason Fighting Hunger.
