Summer Fundraising Challenge
Matthew Heck, 17, and a group of his friends from Wichita High School East organized a 1,300 mile relay against genocide from Wichita, KS to Washington, DC. Each day, the high schoolers ran more than 100 miles, raising over $25,000 for GI-NET in the process. They received a hero's welcome when they arrived in Washington, including having their efforts recognized by Kansas Sen. Sam Brownback, as shown in the picture to the right.
