Math-A-Thon Adds Up: Bratt Elementary Raises $2,300 For St. Jude Children’s Hospital
April 16, 2011
The students at Bratt Elementary School raised just over $2,300 for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital by participating in the Math-A-Thon program.
The Math-A-Thon program includes a free math curriculum supplement for grades K-8 that students complete after obtaining sponsorships from family and friends.
The funds raised by the students benefit St. Jude, where doctors and scientists work to eradicate childhood cancer and other catastrophic childhood diseases.
St. Jude designed Math-A-Thon to supplement a teacher’s existing curriculum, while also teaching students the importance of helping others. To participate, students ask family and friends for pledges to solve math problems in the Math-A-Thon Funbook.
