Just in case you weren't able to read the article, here is just some of these Ohio teens are doing:
She [Natalie] and her friend Maggie Michael designed shirts that are lime green, which is the official color of Lyme disease awareness. They were hoping to sell 50 and have almost sold 200.
Anyone who wears their lime green shirt to the game will get in free, Natalie said.
All the basketball players, including the Granville Recreation District girls team that will play at half time, will have lime green shoe laces.
Maggie and Natalie have also organized a "Dimes for Lyme" change drive in the study halls at Granville High School. The room that collects the most change will win a doughnut party.
Natalie and Katie said they've been amazed by the response to the fundraisers. People have been donating baked goods and raffle items and mailing in donations."
