I have been involved with Marathon since elementary school, and worked really hard last year to be one of the top fundraisers in the middle school. SHMD was so important to my family, especially last year, because my mom was a recipient, and I plan to do everything I can to make this year's dance a success for this year's recipients. I know what effect the dance has on families and the community, and I am so proud to be a part of that as a freshman dancer. Please consider donating in my name so we can continue to help families like mine, who could really use the support. Thank you.
