Starting March 1, 2012 and running through March 16, a group of Lake Orion juniors will be selling t-shirts with all proceeds going towards the North Oakland Community Coalition and earmarked for suicide prevention/mental health initiatives inthe Lake Orion community. In the recent wake of suicides in the community, the students wanted to do something to help the cause. The front of the black shirts will feature the ‘LO? logo as well as a lowercase ‘ve? after to spell LOve. A yellow suicide prevention ribbon hangs off the ‘e.? The back of the shirts say ‘You’re NOT alone.? Shirts will be sold for $15 and are available in youth and adult sizes.
The goal is to raise at least $5,000 to benifit the North Oakland Community Coalition. For more information contact LOHS teacher Cathy Srock at csrock@lakeorion.k12.mi.us.
