Rally Against Cancer -- Dress for Sox-cess Fundraiser for Monday, April 8


Help NMS-Team Dylan Defeat Cancer

Good afternoon Nichols Middle School community,

On Monday, April 8, Opening Day for the Red Sox at Fenway Park, the John T. Nichols, Jr. Middle School community will be participating in a very special fundraiser:  The Jimmy Fund Rally Against Cancer Dress for Sox-cess Fundraiser.

The Berio family has joined forces with the students of Nichols Middle School to help strike out this horrible disease.  

Students can come to school wearing their favorite Boston Red Sox gear, and all we are asking for is at least a dollar donation to wear your hat during school.  

Students may make more of a donation, if they choose, for all the proceeds will go to The Jimmy Fund in support of Team Dylan Berio.

Dylan Berio is a five year old, who is battling cancer.  Dylan is the brother of Hayden Berio, a 7th grader here at NMS.

One can sign-up by making a gift in one of three ways to help strike out cancer:
  1. Bring a cash contribution to school on Monday, April 8.
  2. Bring a check made out to "The Jimmy Fund" to school on Monday, April 8.
  3. Visit the website and make an online donation at:  http://www.rallyagainstcancer.org/2013/nmsteamdylan

All proceeds raised will go to the Dana-Farber Pediatric Brain Tumor Research fund and to the Dana-Farber Brain Tumor Pediatric Patient Fund.

Please help us Rally Against Cancer and strike out this horrible disease.

Go NMS Team Dylan!
