During our Family Book
Fair night, $84 was collected for
Scholastic's One For Books program. For each dollar
donated, a ticket with a child's name was submitted to be eligible
for a chance to win one of 5 - $20 vouchers for books at the book
fair.
The 5 winning tickets were
pulled on the morning of Friday, Oct. 9th by four - 5th Grade
morning announcers. Congratulations to the winners, Helen C.,
Samantha K., Manisha O., Brianna K., and Madison O. who all redeemed
their vouchers for more books!
All of
the money collected from One For Books ($84) goes directly to
purchasing more books for our school. Scholastic Book Fairs
will match the One for Books dollars with a donation of up to a
million books to three non-profit organizations devoted to helping
families in need:
Kids in Distressed Situations, Inc., the National Center for Family
Literacy, and the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation. |
