Walk-a-thon and Teacher Surprise

Susan Pierce

Recently Susan and her girls, participated in their school Walk a Thon. We were gold donation members of the Worthington Estates walk a thon that benefited the school and PTA to give the students items and events they deserve. They were able to raise their goal of $15,000 and Marsh Home Group represented with donation as well as on site by bringing cut oranges, organizing and passing out popsicles, encouraging the runners and supporting the school in anyway they needed it. The kiddos had a blast! We can’t wait for the next one.

We also recently started filling the teacher’s lounge at Worthington Estates with goodies for all the teachers. We appreciate everything they do and it’s great to be able to stop in refill the lounge with their favorites!
