Time for a little EXTRA....

It's time for a little extra..... kindness!!
Great, loved, healthy and kind kids
grow into amazing adults who are
prepared to lead our community and the world.

We all want to see they have a good start, excellent education and safe places to be!
Peninsula High School student Olyvia Poelvoorde is hoping that fund raising efforts will help buy an automatic external defibrillator for the school.Olyvia Poelvoorde is a graduating senior at Peninsula High School.
Her optional senior project is to provide an AED unit at their high school swimming pool. This is basically a defibrillator which can start a stopped heart, save a life and will be kept within close reach in the pool area.
Olyvia is about 1/2 way to her goal
of providing this important life saving piece of equipment.

On Friday, May 25 Olyvia is holding a car wash at Peninsula High School from 11-2pm.
All of us have the opportunity to help start the stopped heart of a child.
Rain
or
Shine...
let's all show up!!

If it is shine, we will leave with a clean car and will have made a donation.
If it is rain, we'll already have a clean car and we can still make a little donation.
This is a very small act of kindness, for each of us, and
all our acts together can be part of helping to save a life!

See you there!!
THANK YOU!!
