Meet Breonna...
9 years old
3rd grade student in Mrs.
Terrell's class at Hendricks Elementary School
A special young lady with a
big heart!
Help Breonna and her
classmates reach her goal of collecting one million pop-tabs for the Ronald McDonald
House. Breonna knows all too well at such a young age why families
need the help of the Ronald McDonald House. Breonna just underwent her
seventh surgery on November 17th in preparation for an upcoming surgery
following Christmas to treat a brain tumor from tubular sclerosis complex
(TSC).

Since the article in the Shelbyville News and the
television coverage on Call 6 For Help and Fox 59, floods of pop-tabs have
been donated. On November 28, 2006, Terry Baughman from Lutheran High
School in Indianapolis delivered almost 200,000 tabs that were collected by
students, staff, and community members.
