Grace

Submission to Wish Upon a Hero
"I am the principal of Thomas Paine International Elementary School. I am writing on behalf of a child and family in my school. About six weeks ago, Grace, a second grader, was diagnosed with cancer. She is responding well to treatment, and we eagerly await the day when she can return to school healthy and strong. She has at least two years of chemotherapy ahead of her. As you can imagine, the treatment is expensive. Even all the trips in and out of the city to the doctors and treatment centers would put a strain on a typical family's budget. To make things worse, her father was laid off just weeks before she was diagnosed. I am writing to try to take the financial strain off the family. They are wonderful, loving parents whose little Grace is suffering, and nothing else matters right now. It would be so nice to take finacial worry off their very full plate. Thanks.

Please help in two ways.
1. Pray for Grace and her family. They are people of faith and will appreciate your prayers.
2. Send donations and get well cards to
Grace C/O
Thomas Paine PTA
4001 Church Road
Cherry Hill, NJ 08002

Checks can be made to Thomas Paine PTA. The PTA will combine them into one check for the family to make the banking easy on them.
On behalf of Grace and her family, thank you for your generosity. "
