Vote for Nick
This is an email I received from Ms. Hopkins, a Learning Support teacher at our school. Take a second and vote for Nick!
Happy Friday everyone!
A parent emailed me last night about a great contest that their child has
entered that I thought I would share with all of you :)
Nicholas Frumento is a 6th grade student in my class with Cerebal Palsy.
You may have seen him around the building walking with crutches. Nick has
entered a "Great Bike Giveaway" contest. If he receives enough votes, he will
win an adaptive bike. If you could take a moment to vote, it will mean the
world to Nick and his family. It is really simple, all you have to do is click
on the link below and type in your email address. They will then send you an
email where you have to verify your email address and then it will calculate
your vote. Please consider taking a minute to vote, I would greatly appreciate
it :)
Below is the link where you can vote and learn more about Nick!
P.S. Make sure to use your link
https://www.friendshipcircle.org/bikes/2015/02/nicholas-f/ to ask for votes and to donate. This will
ensure that donors are donating a bike to your bike
category.
Thanks,
Rachel
