We are collecting pennies for patients! This fundraiser benefits the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. The campaign will run from February 4th – 22nd. Students may collect any coins or bills, it does not have to be just pennies.

Students can collect money using their boxes and then bring the money to their homeroom to deposit in their homeroom box. The flyer also explains how students can create a donation page online to be able to earn prizes.

As a campus, we will be competing by houses.If we collect at least $750. as a campus, we will be awarded with an Olive Garden lunch for 35. This means, whichever house collects the most money will have an opportunity to win the lunch. I will put the homerooms belonging to the winning house and draw one out to select the winner of the lunch. We will also be able to feed any of the adults on campus belonging to that house, so adults – make sure you donate to your house!
