Woodside Students Care

The Pink Ribbon Club is participating in the Relay for life on May 16th at Sequoia High School. It is an event run by the American Cancer Society to raise money and awareness for cancer research. Students will be walking and raising money for almost 24 hours.  To donate, go to the relay for life website (http://relay.acsevents.org/site/PageServer/?pagename=relay) and search for "Woodside High School" in the team section of the box that says "support a participant or team."
