It takes a town...
We live in the wonderful community of Hadley, Massachusetts a small, farm town of under 5,000 people. It's the kind of town where people support one another in wonderful ways. A growing group of parents have been cheering one another on to get active physically as well as active in raising funds for technology and other special initiatives for our schools . The founder of Helping Hearts for Hadley schools, Stacey Mushenski, took a leap of faith and posted on a social network the idea of a 5K to benefit the schools. The response was overwhelming! From that moment on the organization was formed and has been hard at work ever since to provide assistance in upgrading the classrooms with the technology as well as providing funding to other programs such as Art , Music, and Physical Education., that is needed to provide a well rounded education for our students.
"My vision for this event is to bring administration, teachers, parents, students, family, friends, community members and anyone else together to raise funds, enjoy the block party at the end of the 5K and support each other in being or starting to become active. It only takes one time, one chance, one moment in life to really make a difference in your life and those that surround you. Make this your time, your chance, your moment!!" ~ Stacey Mushenski
