North students help

Class of 2015

Through out my four years at North Attleboro High school the number one thing I've really learned outside of the classroom is how to be selfless and help those in need. 
When fellow student and friend Mallorie Lindo lost her fight against epilepsy, our school really came together to help her family in anyway we could. Helping others in need makes us appreciate the gifts we have.   We shouldn't take for granted things like good health, luxury, and family.  
I read an article on wcvb.com about a 6 year old girl named Addie from Utah who has an undiagnosed condition that has caused cerebral atrophy as a symptom. This essentially means that her brain hasn't been working correctly since she was three. This hit home for me because I have a 7 year old sister and a 3 year old brother and couldn't even imagine what Addie's family is going through. She is unable to go to school and unable to play with friends. She has less than a year left so this may be her last Christmas. Because she looks forward to going to the post office every day and collecting Christmas cards, her family is asking for are any types of cards from her 'friends' across the country. 
I've decided to take it upon myself to tell everyone I know about this little girl named Addie Fausett from Fountain Green, Utah. 
I strongly encourage everyone who reads this to send Addie a card for Christmas!  
The next time you are in the Media Center, please take a few moments to make a card for Addie!  I will collect all these cards and send them to her before Christmas.  
If you would like to send your own card to Addie directly, send it to:
Addie Fausett 
Box 162
Fountain Green, UT 84632 

Help make Addie's Christmas the best is can possibly be!
