I know a great way to help supply food banks. It's called the penny wars. You see, at your school, each team would get a jar. The goal is to fill up your jar with pennys that earn you won point. But you don't want to get bombed. Being bombed is when another team puts anything from a nickel up to a dollar coin in your jar. A quarter, for instance, would be -25 points. Whenever you decide the "war" to be over, you donate all the money to a hurricane victims, and the class with the most points wins something. Talk with your pricipal about this. I am doing it at my school and it has been so fun! Tell me if you like this Idea.
I did that for my school, but we raised money for SADD instead. It was a fun,easy, and quick way to raise a pretty good amount of money. Although you should remember to tell your group how much effort it takes to count/roll all of the coins!!! :) haha good times. Its good that you posted this idea for others to see!! Thanks! <3
thats cool. but when i tell them that its called penny wars then they might actually become a war :).
haha trust me, it can get pretty intense. :)
hope everything worked out.
