Connecting Schools With Great Fundraising Ideas.

Two California High School football teams are teaming together for a unique fundraiser. They will pull a DC-10 airplane with a rope. The Apple Valley High School of Apple Valley and the Silverado High School of Mission Viejo are rival football teams participating in the event.

The event will take place on Tuesday, October 30th at the Southern California Logistics Airport in Victorville. Funds raised will benefit eye care for residents of third-world countries. The World Health Organization states that approximately 75 percent of the people who are blind can be cured. The airplane they are pulling is the Orbis Flying Eye Hospital DC-10 which has flown around the world since 1982.

The football teams will be wearing their uniforms, gloves and football helmets for the special athletic competition. This event is considered a rehersal for another fundraiser planned in December of this year, five corporate sponsors will be competing and will pay $10,000 for the chance to participate.
