We had a school here that had a girl on the softball team have cancer and the principal (who is normally a jerk) allowed the kids in school to wear hats every Friday and charged them $1 every Friday to do it. He then gave that money to the girl's family for expenses. It was a small way of allowing her fellow students to support and contribute to her defeating cancer - which she did and is now playing college softball!
