Mamaroneck High School Club Members Support PCF
Cindy Vucetovic of Cindy’s Hair Studio, located at 137 Mamaroneck Ave, first met Nancy Joselson, Executive Director of Pediatric Cancer Foundation (PCF) at the salon. They connected instantly and worked together on the idea of a kick-off event for the Annual PCF Bike-a-thon to raise funds. Cindy generously offered to do blue hair extensions in support of kids with cancer. During the month of May, you can donate $10 to PCF and get a blue streak hair extension at Cindy’s Hair Studio. Please call Cindy ahead of time at 914-835-3876.
On Friday May 7, 2010, a number of girls from the Mamaroneck schools, including many girl scouts came to Cindy’s Hair Studio to get their blue hair extensions. MHS club members who support PCF (MHS4PCF) also came in to raise money for the Foundation. They raised $500 through bake sales at the high school towards the 10th Annual PCF Bikeathon on May 16th, 2010, along the Bronx River Parkway at the Westchester County Center in White Plains. You can bike, run, walk or simply come and show your support for PCF. It promises to be an entertaining day for kids with food, face painting, raffles and many more.

PCF congratulates The Greenburgh Hebrew Center Nursery School who held their annual Trike-A-Thon for Pediatric Cancer Foundation on Wednesday, Feb. 11. The children, who are 2, 3 and 4 years old, rode around an indoor track set up in the synagogue's atrium and did as many laps as they could in the time alotted. Some children did more than 80 laps! The children were very excited to help sick children and understood the importance of their "mission". They were rewarded with praise, mitzvah leaves on a "good deed" tree, and the satisfaction of doing good for someone else. All monies collected will go directly to the Pediatric Cancer Foundation.
