Lending a Helping Hand (09-20-2017)
During the 2016-2017 school year, the STPPS community raised more than $85,000 for five local non-profit organizations. As a direct result of one of those STPPS fundraising efforts, a Fontainebleau Junior High student has benefitted by a donation thanks to Addie’s Angels.
Addie’s Angels, led by Fontainebleau Junior High assistant principal Bill Gallagher, purchased a new R82 Crocodile Gait Trainer walker for FJH student Jacob Rogers. Jacob was outfitted for his new walker on Monday at school. The purchase was made possible by the more than $10,000 donation to Addie’s Angels in April by the STPPS community.
Addie’s Angels is a non-profit organization benefiting children who have lost the use of one or more limbs or have limb abnormalities. The organization is named after 7-year-old Addison Gallagher, who was born with Amniotic Band Syndrome (ABS) which prevented the development of her left arm. Addison a 2nd grade student at Whispering Forest Elementary where her mom Amiee Gallagher is a 1st grade teacher. To learn more about Addie's Angels, visit www.addiesangels.com.
