Dr. Probe Elementary Shows Support With Head Shave
LETHBRIDGE – The grade fours at Dr. Probe Elementary School have been hard at work, raising money to support a fellow student who has been battling leukemia.
This past month, donations quadrupled their original goal of $1,500, raising approximately $6,225.
Yuvraj Minhas has been at the Alberta Children’s Hospital for more than a year. He returned briefly to school before a relapse and has recently undergone a stem cell transplant. The family has been in and out of Ronald McDonald House and has had to take extended time off work.
This morning (June 3), Minhas was face-timed in to an assembly where 25 students, teachers and coaches had their heads shaved to show their support.
