Please Support VHHS C.O.L.D. Fundraiser for Ann and Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital

Students at Vernon Hills High School have forged a unique partnership with the Ann and Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago in an effort to support the many young patients who seek treatment there. Students are working in teams to raise funds for four specific wings of the renown medical facility through such activities as donation drives and the school’s new “C.O.L.D.” winter celebration, planned for the evening of Saturday, February 22 at the school. (C.O.L.D. stands for both "Come On, Let's Donate" and, when the week is done ,"Come On, Let's Dance.")

More information about C.O.L.D., including links where anyone can donate in support of each class and the patients at Lurie Children's, is posted on the Vernon Hills High School web pages – http://vhhscougars.org/story/cold-week-hits-vhhs. Any support will be greatly appreciated. Thank you to the entire VHHS community for their support of all of the students' activities and of this very worthy cause!
