Ripley High school comes through again for Go Jim Go

RIPLEY, Tenn. — Faculty at Ripley High School get to dress down for a good cause.  One of the ways the school raises money for Go Jim Go is allowing teachers to wear jeans in exchange for a donation.

Students also run a coins for kids campaign as a part of the donation to Le Bonheur Children’s Hospital.

A Ripley High student has been to Le Bonheur many times for treatment of a heart condition and spoke to the crowd assembled for the event on Thursday morning.  Be sure to watch the video and hear her compelling story.

Principal Joe Bridges presented Jim Jaggers and the Go Jim Go team a check for $2,000.
