Rachel's
Legacy Year 2, October 13th, at the HS auditorium from 7:00 - 8:00 PM. You’re invited to witness an
incredible story of courage and hope…

her six diaries have become the foundation for two of the most life-changing
school programs in America—Rachel’s Challenge and Rachel’s Legacy. Rachel’s
story has touched the lives of over nine million people over the past
several years. On October 13th, in the Girard HS auditorium,
Rachel’s Legacy will try to restart those chain reactions of compassion,
kindness, and empathy for others that were started last year with Rachel’s
Challenge. CLICK HERE FOR MORE INFORMATION
