Each year we support the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society through the Olive Garden Pasta for Pennies program. Mrs. Hogan's class coordinates Kumeyaay's efforts in the fight against blood cancers. Over a three-week period during February or March, students collect spare change. The change is then counted and deposited to LLS. One participating classroom wins a pasta party from Olive Garden.
Participation in this program teaches our students what a difference they can make for others and how powerful they can be. Nationwide over the lifetime of the program students have raised over $211 million for research and patient services.
