Kick-a-Thon TONIGHT!

Join the cause! Tonight is a very important all ages KICK-A-THON EVENT beginning at 5:30pm on Monday, March 2, to support the Blood Cancer United.

What is a Kick-a-Thon? It's a unique and engaging way for our community to come together and make a positive impact on the lives of blood cancer victims across the United States. 

How a Kick-a-Thon works:

• Participants purchase a wooden board for just $3
• On the board, they write down a bad habit they are determined to break.
• Participants reach out to friends and family for donations — we're challenging students to ask 10 people for $10 each. 
• Donations can be made online or by scanning a QR code (below). The best way to take donations is directly through the Blood Cancer United website or QR and the website, but we can take cash or check donations if necessary — checks should be made payable to Blood Cancer United, not MPK.
• Supporters can contribute any amount and leave their signature on the participant's board.

Event Day Highlights:

• On the day of the Kick-a-Thon — Monday, March 2nd at 5:30 pm — participants will physically break their wooden board by kicking it, symbolizing their commitment to breaking their bad habit.
• If you are participating in the Kick-a-Thon, please wear your full uniform.
• The grand total raised will be revealed, creating a powerful and fun experience. In past years, we've raised very significant sums to support cancer research and the families affected by blood cancer.

Support the cause and make a difference by joining us for the March 2 Kick-a-Thon. You can participate, make a donation, or simply come and cheer on the participants! Even just your presence will contribute to the success of this impactful event.
