Gordon Block from Collegiatetimes.com is reporting:
Friends of slain Virginia Tech student Morgan Harrington are preparing the sale of wristbands to raise money in her name for charity.
The purple and green wristbands will feature Harrington’s name, a heart, and “241,” representing the family’s slogan, “I love you too much, forever, once more.” The wristbands are tentatively priced at $4. Proceeds from sales of the bands will be donated to Orphan Medical Network International.
Harrington, a junior education major, went missing on October 17, 2009 while attending a METALLICA concert at the University of Virginia’s John Paul Jones Arena. Her body was uncovered Jan. 27, 2010 at a farm approximately 10 miles from the arena.
The Harrington family announced in early February the formation of a scholarship in Morgan’s name to benefit the Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine.
The Harrington family designated donations be made to the scholarship, along with OMNI.
