Parents, did you know that if each child at LRE brought in one milk cap and one Box Top or Labels for Education label a month, our school would raise an additional $1250 with little or no effort. If your family is anything like mine, we could contribute 4 milk caps and at least 4 labels a month, drastically increasing LRE's earnings and doing nothing extra except wash the caps and cut out the labels.
We will be having a milk cap collection challenge this fall. Please be watching for more information. The teachers are generating a wish list of items that could be purchased with funds from these corporate donations. We are participating in the following corporate donation programs: Kemps milk caps, MooLa milk caps & Glazers donut box labels (Kwik Trip), Land O Lakes milk caps, Box Tops for Education (small pink rectangles on items such as General Mills cereal), Labels for Education (caps from V8 juices & labels from Campbells soup) and empty ink/toner cartridges. We are currently not collecting Tyson chicken labels anymore. A very specific list will be sent home in a Thursday folder this month. |
