The Serra Catholic Cheerleaders are honoring one of their own that died in a school van accident two weeks ago.

Samantha Kalkbrenner was a sophomore and cheerleader at Sera Catholic.

Shirts, hoodies and car decals are now available for order.

“To honor her life, we've made clothing to remind everyone of her bright personality and to drive safe,” the Cheerleading team posted on the clothing website

The front of the shirts and hoodies say #CheeringForSam. The back says “drive safe somebody loves you” and #SmilingForSam.

All of the proceeds will go to the Kalkbrenner family.

A GoFundMe is trying to raise $75,000 for the family.

The current amount is still a little over $20,000 under the goal.
