Mop, Mop, Mop, Mop. Support our team in the Libman High School Mop Crew Challenge benefiting Coaches vs. Cancer! Supporting our campaign is easy, all you have to do is click on the link below to make a contribution. Our very own "mop crew" will perform during halftime of the HS Boys Basketball game vs. Cerro Gordo-Bement on Tuesday, February 18th. Did I mention this is also senior night?!
How does it work?
1. With your help, the team will raise money for Coaches vs. Cancer to benefit the American Cancer Society.
2.The school will then select students to be a part of the "mop crew". They will create a video & perform at halftime.
3. Libman will then select the best video among other schools and award $500 scholarships to the winning crew.
4. Libman will ALSO donate $3,000 to the winning school's athletic program.
This is an awesome opportunity benefiting a great cause as well as our students and school.
