OVMS Student Council Donates
This past October the Okaw Valley Student Council sponsored a 5K to raise money and awareness. Though the event took place some time ago, the council found a perfect candidate to donate their earnings to in the DMH Mammography Initiative, which helps women without insurance and the financially unavailable, an opportunity for a mammogram test.
Last year the council raised $500 with their first 5K. Looking to grow on the amount, the Okaw Valley Middle School will host the second annual 5K and 1 mile Fun Run this coming October 11. To find more information visit facebook.com/OVMS5k or twitter.com/OVMS5kforcancer (@OVMS5kforcancer).
