Each September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. To demonstrate its support, Landmark Christian School and the Georgia High School Association recently partnered with the Rally Foundation for Childhood Cancer Research to encourage Georgia students, athletes, and parents to “Go Gold” during the month of September.

At its Sept. 9 home game, Landmark students, parents, and faculty helped raise $5,000 through individual donations and the purchase of special “Gold-Out” t-shirts to benefit childhood cancer research.

All money raised will go to the Rally Foundation for Childhood Cancer Research. In the last 10 years, Rally has awarded more than $9 million in research grants supporting more than 200 projects nationwide. Ninety four cents of every dollar raised supports Rally’s efforts to find better treatments and cures for children battling cancer.
