Dashel Prywes, a sixth grader at TMS, is working to set a Guinness World Record for tallest Magna-tile tower. He is doing this to raise awareness for childhood kidney disease. Dashel was born with kidney disease, but that doesn’t stop him from rock climbing, playing chess, or trying to break World Records. You can support Dashel in reaching his goal by visiting www.Dashelskidneyjourney.com and help Dashel and Tenafly receive their first Guinness World Record.

Enjoy your weekend.
