A Duck for Every Occasion

Danielle L.

Holbrook, NY

"What’s cute, yellow and quacks in the tub? All of my rubber duckies! My name is Danielle, and I collect adorable rubber ducks and they’re all in a row on shelves in my room in Holbrook, NY. Not all of my duckies are yellow. They resemble all different colors, shades, holidays and special occasions. Even though all of my ducks are “tub-worthy” none of them have actually been in the water. Each duck is different from the others. Many of them are holiday ducks. I have some that have party hats on and others that wear cheerleading uniforms. Some play sports while others would rather play the guitar or brush their teeth.

Fight For A Cure

Rachele Z.

"This is my real story. In my family we have experienced the dreadful disease of Breast Cancer in 3 generations. My mother died from it at the young age of 59 and I had it at a younger age of 36. My first daughter had it at the young age of 25 and again in her second breast at the age of 33. My second daughter was 34 weeks pregnant and found out she had Breast Cancer so they had to do a C-section to take the baby so she could start on her chemo, at that time she also was diagnosed with Ovarian Cancer.


BcabagsTo date God has been extremely good to us and we are all in remission.


My dream is that they find a CURE before it hits our next generation, which is my 3 granddaughters. That is why I am involved with the Avon Walk, and was happy to find your pinwheels with the smiley face. I added stickers to the leaves which say "SMILE"€ on one side and "€œEVERY STEP YOU TAKE IS ONE STEP CLOSER TO THE CURE."


Early detection is the key to SURVIVAL.


Each person who will be doing the Avon Walk in Chicago on May 31st will be getting a Pinwheel."

Crafts for Veterans

The Christmascraftkit crafts will be given to Veterans coming to the VA Clinic and Hospital in Savannah, Georgia during one week at Christmastime. The crafts include messages for the servicemen. This started as a class project and spread to the entire school. The whole town has joined in with food, certificates, etc. from merchants for this same week."
