Information About the “Help the Howie’s Dodge Cancer” Dodge Ball Tournament
PROJECT
Maple Point Middle School’s 7th grade Academic Enrichment class has decided to organize a fundraising event supporting the Caring for Carcinoid Foundation () . Both Dennis Howie and his wife Jennifer Howie are beloved Neshaminy teachers. Four years ago, Dennis Howie was diagnosed with a rare form of pancreatic cancer, the type of cancer that the Caring for Carcinoid Foundation (CFCF) supports. Currently, Dennis Howie is still receiving treatment for his rare type of cancer. Unfortunately, two years ago, Jennifer Howie was also diagnosed with thyroid cancer. Throughout their journey, the Howies discovered that larger charities like the American Cancer Society, give extremely small donations to such rare cancers. Our fundraising event for the teachers we care so much about, appropriately named “The Fourth Annual Help the Howie’s Dodge Cancer,” is a dodge ball tournament held in the Maple Point gymnasium on Wednesday, June 3rd, from 6-9pm. We are collecting money through ticket sales, concessions, and donations. Support in donations of any kind would be greatly appreciated.
Caring for Carcinoid Foundation
The Caring for Carcinoid Foundation’s mission is to discover cures for carcinoid cancer, pancreatic neuroendorcrine cancer, and related neuroendocrine cancers. CFCF also works to eliminate the suffering of patients, families, and caregivers affected by neuroendocrine cancers.
Donations
All of the proceeds this year will be donated to the Caring For Carcinoid Foundation.As we already mentioned, any donation will be much obliged. Businesses who donate $50 or more will get their name printed on a t-shirt that will be sold at the tournament. Any business that donates will get their business’ name printed in the tournament’s program, and the DJ will announce their name. Checks should be made out to Maple Point Middle School.
