American Honda Foundation Grant After visiting our teacher resource center, the American Honda Foundation approved our grant for the full amount of $60,000! This grant is being obtained for the purpose of acquiring STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) product for our store. Needless to say we are all pretty excited around here! The goal will be to obtain the product this fall and have it ready to go for all teachers by the first shopping visit Spring semester, 2015. |

Run For Your Life
Join us for the Kettering Rotary Club's Run For Your Life 5K and 8K Challenge. The run will be held on Friday, October 24th. The race will be held at the Community Golf Center in Kettering. Registration is now open. Registration is $20 before October 14 and includes a long-sleeve, custom-logo t-shirt. Participants also have the option to upgrade to a technical t-shirt for just $5 more. The first 150 registrants will receive an official race day goodie bag. On October 15, the cost to register increases to $25.
The 8K Challenge is back for runners who think they can complete 5K in under 25 minutes. Challenge runners will run the 5K and then continue on the course for an additional 3K. Those entering the Challenge will compete in both the 5K and 8K races. Two races in one! Participation in the 8K Challenge requires pre-registration and a $5 additional fee.
A costume contest will be held prior to the race. Runners must be present at 5:30 pm for the judging which will take place near registration in the Solomon Pavilion. The judges will award prizes to the top three costumes in both the children (12 and under) and adult divisions (13+). Creativity is encouraged!
Stay for the fun after the run is done! There will be a race after-party at the Community Golf Center with music, refreshments, awards presentations, and raffle prizes. The event proceeds will benefit DC2C!

nd continuous voting, DC2C would have never received the $25,000 grant from the Blue Bunny Helmet of Hope Program. Nancy, who worked in education for many years, had seen first hand the struggles of students who could not succeed without the school supplies they needed. Nancy's dedication to helping DC2C win the BBHOH grant was truly inspiring. Nancy's continued support means so much to us here at DC2C!
