Adriana Lyons is surrounded by dozens of supporters at Fouse Elementary School who wore green on March 21 for National Cerebral Palsy Awareness Day.
Fourth grade student Adriana Lyons gets by with a little help from her friends. Lots of friends, in fact, as evidenced by the support she received on March 21, National Cerebral Palsy (CP) Awareness Day. Classmates and staff purchased HOPE shirts and wore green to honor Lyons, with proceeds going to Reaching for the Stars, a Foundation of HOPE. The organization is dedicated to preventing, treating, and ultimately curing the disease. Each year, one out of every 323 babies is born with CP. It is the most common motor disability in children.
