Lower Merion High lip dubs to raise money for American Cancer Society

On April 29th, students, staff and administration at Lower Merion High School flooded the school’s hallways to film a school-wide lip dub to the song "Firework" by Katy Perry to raise funds for the American cancer Society.

On April 29th, students, staff and administration at Lower Merion High School flooded the school's hallways to film a school-wide lip dub to the song "Firework" by Katy Perry.

As part of the school's continued efforts to fight cancer, the lip dub was put on to promote an end-of-year online giving campaign for the American Cancer Society's Coaches vs. Cancer program.

Previously, the school's Coaches vs. Cancer committee has raised funds through events like dance-a-thons, dodge ball and 3 on 3 basketball tournaments — but this year's school-wide lip dub definitely takes the cake.

The video has been viewed more than 7,500 times since it was posted last week.

According to the school's fundraising page:

"Cancer is a fierce opponent, but our team is committed to helping the American Cancer Society raise awareness about what we can do, together, to help end this disease.  Our mission is clear – keep fighting for the day when no one hears the words "you have cancer."

So far, the Lower Merion team has raised $3,502 for the American Cancer Society, not far from their $5,000 goal.
