Everyone knows someone affected by heart disease or stroke. For those we love, Stevenson Elementary will be walking in this year's Heart Walk on International Walk to School Day, October 3. We have set a goal to raise funds for the American Heart Association and need your help to reach our donation goal. We are raising critical dollars for heart disease and stroke research and education.

You can help us reach our goal by making a donation online by going to http://heartwalk.kintera.org to visit Stevenson Elementary's personal donation page where you can make a secure online credit card donation. The American Heart Association's online fundraising website has a minimum donation amount of $25. If you prefer to donate less, you can do so by sending a check to Stevenson Elementary School at 1001 North Main Street, Russellville, KY 42276. Please indicate that the check is for the American Heart Association. Another way to donate is to contact a Stevenson Elementary School student, parent, or teacher. Or you can just call me at the Central Office.

Your donation will help fight our nation's No. 1 and No. 3 killers-heart disease and stroke. You are making a difference. Thank you for your support.
