Plastic Bottle Caps Needed
Bob DiTore is asking for your help in collecting bottle caps for his Project Vortex assignment. The collection bin is in the mansion lobby. Thank you!
Soles4Souls’ Shoe Collection
Hill Top is collecting new and gently used shoes. Donated shoes will be repurposed and distributed through Soles4Souls’, a micro-enterprise program that create jobs in Haiti, Honduras and other developing nations. The program helps individuals start small businesses.
Jared Miller is supporting his brother Zachary with this service project. The collection bin is in the mansion lobby. Thanks in advance for your help!
Box Tops for Education Campaign
The MSSC has renewed sponsorship of the Box Tops for Education campaign. These are the pink and white coupons found on cereal boxes, other General Mills products, paper products, household cleaning products, and many other products, including food storage products such as Ziplock Bags. The school gets ten cents for each one we submit. It may not sound like much, but it will add up if we take the time to cut them out and bring them in. A collection box will be on Mrs. Barnes’s desk.
We have collected $41.00 from everyone's Box Top coupons. Our goal is to double that by the next collection period in April.
Now there's an easier way to do it. Simply scan your store receipt within 14 days of purchase with the Box Tops mobile app to identify participating products and instantly add cash to our school's earnings online.
See how at BTFE.com. (Your phone should be set to automatically update the Box Tops app.)
All unexpired clipped Box Top coupons are still being accepted.
Thank You!!
