Hi everyone! We'd LOVE to make our goal by Christmas - what a great gift we will have! Please share this story and fundraiser.

One of our classmates went to visit Jess. She talked about how the papers for our class have been driving her a little crazy, and Jess smirked! We are so excited for her improvement.

Thanks for your support and continued thoughts and prayers.

We are SO CLOSE to our goal!! I just let the class know, and they are beyond excited and grateful for everyone's support.

As we go into this Thanksgiving season, we are thankful for so much. I personally and thankful for my amazing students who are so caring and thoughtful. We are all thankful for the support you have given to our campaign, whether you have shared the information or donated.

Please share this one last time and let's make a push for the last $850 (or maybe even MORE!). Jessica, and all of you, are in our thoughts this Thanksgiving.

Channel 9 - KMSP in the Twin Cities is going to have a story about Jessica (possibly tonight?). Tomorrow, at the Forest Lake debate tournament, we are hosting a fundraiser as well: a .005K "Fun Run" to raise money.

We are excited to announce that we are over 1/2 way to our goal in just a week!! Please keep sharing our fundraiser and sending positive thoughts/prayers that Jessica recovers quickly!

Today was Nike Day at school in honor of Jessica - lots of kids dressed in Nike and athletic wear. It was a beautiful tribute, and it's the perfect day to announce we're over $2000!

Keep spreading the word - maybe by tomorrow, we'll be halfway to our goal!

Wow - we've broken the $1500 mark, thanks to the support of Jessica's classmates, who've donated over $500 in person! This is fantastic news, but we don't want to slow down. Please continue to share this however you can. You can donate here, or bring money to Ms. Madson's room at the high school (room 375) if you are more comfortable doing that. Thanks so much!
