re: teacher/class needs help in finding a local group

LJT

Hi Everyone:

My name is LJ and I am a teacher at Mesa High School here in Arizona.  I teach Special Ed kids and a project my class is doing is raising awareness of breast cancer here on our campus.  My class (9 boys and 1 girl) have put together an amazing  week of awareness by making t-shirts to sell to the staff and student body, as well as making pink ribbons and selling water and pink lemonade during breaks.  My kids and other staff members that have had breast cancer effect them, are also going to make a 5 minute Public Service Announcement to show the entire staff and student body here on campus.  I am so proud of these kids for stepping up.  The problem we are having is the kids want to make a donation to a local group in Mesa and I have no idea who to go to, what needs to be done etc.  Can someone please help me and let me know where we can go and who we can help?

Thanks everyone and our prayers and thoughts are with you all....
