ivercrest Junior High School students recently initiated
a fundraiser for their counselor, Carney Limbock. A
few weeks ago, Limbock received a diagnosis of breast
.cancer. When she shared this information with her
students, they were moved to action.
RJHS student, Kaytie Jane Ballard said, “I was shocked at first,
but I knew if anyone could get through it, Mrs. Limbock could.”
RJHS student, Kodi Hyatt led an initiative to create a district-
wide T-shirt with the proceeds going to help cover some of the
expenses of Mrs. Limbeck’s treatment.
When asked why she took on this project, Kodi said, “Mrs.
Limbock is a fighter, and we want to show our support for her!”
With the help of Simply Southern owner, Cheri Rushing,
Rivercrest ISD has sold over 250 shirts so far. Rushing expressed
her support of Limbock by providing the shirts at cost.
“Carney is someone I’ve known my whole life,” she said. “It
was important for us to show our support through this challenge.”
Visibly moved by the outpouring of support, Limbock said,
“the last month would have been unbearable if not for your words
of encouragement and continued support. Thank you from the
bottom of my heart.”
