Randi Van Der Sloot was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2015. After undergoing treatment and radiation that cost her her hair, she beat the cancer much to the joy of her family and students. Now, five years later, she\u2019s been diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer for the second time.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cYou never expect to hear these words \u2014 especially in a global pandemic: \u2018You have cancer, space bar, again,\u201d said Van Der Sloot in an interview with KELO<\/a>. Her current condition is metastatic, so the cancer is spreading to different parts of her body. But the students at Roosevelt High School won\u2019t let negativity spread.<\/span><\/p>\n

In honor of their Assistant Choir Director, students of RHS plastered the walls of their campus with messages of encouragement and positivity. It is evident by the outpour of love and support that Van Der Sloot is well appreciated at the school. Vice President of the RHS Cancer Club Morgan Whiting said<\/a>, \u201cI feel that she just radiates positivity into every room she enters, and if someone has a bad day she does everything she can to make them feel better.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

But the students didn\u2019t stop at the wall of positivity. The RHS Cancer Awareness Club organized a fundraiser for Van Der Sloot, and her family, at the local Chipotle. Those that dine there on the day of the fundraiser, and mention the school\u2019s Cancer Club, will have 33-percent of their meal\u2019s proceeds donated to Van Der Sloot\u2019s family.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s very heartwarming for me to know that she\u2019s got these people: the cancer group, and all the kids, and all the love, gosh, and then the positivity wall, and, all of those things for me\u2026 I couldn\u2019t even put into words what that means,\u201d said<\/a> husband Marty Van Der Sloot.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re in the area on Thursday, December 17th and wish to participate in the fundraiser for Randi Van Der Sloot, be sure to bring a copy of this flyer or order online using the code below.<\/span><\/p>\n
