A recent Ada Trike-a-Thon raised more than $500 for Amelia and another $500 for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. The benefit not only taught children bike safety, but also helped two great causes.
The effort was undertaken by the ONU Honors Program, ONU Child Development Center, and Ready, Set, Grow Preschool. Amelia, 5 years old, is fighting pediatric cancer. She is the daughter Beau and Christina Griffin. (Monty Siekerman photo)
