Junior Class Walk-A-Thon to benefit Multiple Sclerosis Foundation April 3

cw
Foxcroft School’s Junior Class invites area residents to join them in making a difference in our world by supporting the Foxcroft Walk-A-Thon to benefit the Multiple Sclerosis Foundation on Friday, April 3. Walkers, runners and cyclists are welcome to join the five-mile trek, which starts at Brick House on the campus of the Middleburg, VA school at 3:30pm.
Individuals may also sponsor participants or make a donation. Contributions of any size are appreciated and may be mailed to Class of 2010 Walk-A-Thon 2009; Foxcroft School; P.O. Box 5555; Middleburg, VA 20118. They may also be or given to members of the Class. Please make checks out to the Foxcroft School Walk-A-Thon.

The Foxcroft Walk-A-Thon is organized each year by the School’s Junior Class, which chooses a beneficiary, elicits sponsorships from local businesses, families and friends and conducts the walk, with help from faculty sponsors. In recent years, the event has raised thousands of dollars to build a school in Malawi, Africa (2006), support a pediatric AIDS unit in Accra, Ghana (2007) and benefit the Christopher and Dana Reeve Foundation.

The 50+ members of this year’s Junior Class chose to benefit the Multiple Sclerosis Foundation because both a classmate’s father and a Foxcroft housemother’s husband have been diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. MS affects the muscles and brain function causing everyday tasks such as walking, breathing, and eating to become monumental tasks. The Multiple Sclerosis Foundation is concerned with the physical, emotional, and social impact on people diagnosed with MS and their families and provides programs, information and assistance to these people.
