Team Distinction Fundraiser for Leukemia and Lymphoma

Team Distinction was founded by Green Ties ’17, Diana Rosas, Karen Cabrera, and Samantha Leyva with the goal of raising $30,000 for blood cancer research and blood cancer patients through the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.  Team Distinction received inspiration for their name from the phrase they have repeatedly heard throughout our four years at SMA: “SMA Belles are women of distinction”.   Please see the letter below from Green Tie ’17, Diana Rosas, about the fundraiser.

-United Nations Resolution 66/170

From- www.dayofthegirl.org:

“In 2011, as the result of youth advocacy around the world, the United Nations declared October 11 as the International Day of the Girl Child. Its mission is “to help galvanize worldwide enthusiasm for goals to better girls’ lives, providing an opportunity for them to show leadership and reach their full potential.” It’s a day when activist groups come together under the same goal to highlight, discuss, and take action to advance rights and opportunities for girls everywhere.

This day is about celebrating girls, and advocating for gender equality. It is about prompting people to think and talk about issues that affect girls and women everywhere. Events around the country will bring people together to both recognize the role of oppression and take a stand against its influence on their own lives and communities.

October 11 is not just a day; it’s a movement.

A worldwide revolution.”

 

And as an all girls school our BELLES and SMA are part of that revolution….
