Some people die from it,” said Erin, a 7th grader. The students organize Purple Pinky Days at their own school and at the five elementary schools in their district. Last spring, the students raised about $3,500 in small, one dollar donations during Purple Pinky Days. The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation donates $2 for every dollar raised – so their $3,500 grew into a $10,500 donation. Purple Pinky Days raise more than money – they also raise awareness about polio and how the disease can be eliminated Northwest West Inc. Northwest West Inc. Northwest West West Inc. Inc.
