After years of saving and fundraising, the graduating class of New Hampshire’s Profile Senior High School had a whopping $8,000 for their senior trip.

The money was gathered for a group trip to Ridin’ Hy Ranch and Resort where they were to spend four days celebrating.

But just days before the trip, the school Principal Courtney Vashaw told her students she has an aggressive form of cancer.

What the students did next was truly heartwarming.

The group gathered in a classroom before student treasurer, Ian Baker announced the group had a unanimous vote.

“We decided not to go on our senior class trip this year and donate all of our funds to your cause,” he told the emotional Principal.

Mrs Vashaw appears overcome with emotion.

“It is very hard for me to accept help, and I have no idea what to say to you,” she said.
