Pickerington Schools partners with Battle Pups

https://donate.waytobattle.com/pickerington


Pickerington Local School District (PLSD) is proud to join neighboring school districts in support of
Way to Battle’s mission that “No One Battles Alone”.  


Since October 2021, the
Way to Battle Organization has given away over 60,000 Battle Pups, more than 1,500 of those Battle Pups were given directly to students and families of PLSD. "Battle Pups" are gifted as symbols of comfort and support, especially for children navigating challenging circumstances such as illness or trauma through the nonprofit organization. These stuffed dogs serve as heartfelt reminders that no one faces their struggles alone. They inspire resilience, offering a tangible companion to help individuals "battle" through tough times.


As a district, we recognize that at some point we all face challenges. Participating in this fundraiser allows us to support students and families in Pickerington and neighboring communities, reassuring them that “No one battles alone”. “Battle Pups” are here to provide strength and encouragement to people of all ages who need a little comfort and to remind them that no matter how hard things feel, they are not alone. 


Please join us in helping our students and families help other students and families, near and far, know they are not alone in whatever life-changing battles they are facing. 100% of donations will go directly toward the delivery of Battle Pups to students and families experiencing a life changing battle. A donation of $10 will fully fund one “Battle Pup”. Our goal is to pay forward the 1,500 Battle Pups the Way to Battle Organization so generously provided to PLSD students and families when we needed it most.
