“Coming upon poverty reminds us of our own fortune; knowing our own fortune reminds us to treasure it.”
“KING SCHOOL GIVES BACK”
TENS OF THOUSANDS OF INDIVIDUALS HAVE BEEN AFFECTED BY CYCLONE NARGI IN MYANMAR AND THE EARTHQUAKE IN SOUTHWESTERN CHINA’S SICHUAN PROVINCE
Our King Community has many families with ties to Asia and we are excited to present an opportunity for our children and parents to donate. Each classroom will have an empty milk jug for coin donations. Our children can feel like they are helping by donating spare change or organizing neighborhood fund raisers (pulling weeds, lemonade stands, or pet walking). There will also be a milk jug in the main office for those parents that would like to send a separate donation. The PTO is currently looking into a reputable organization that has the ability to help families in both countries.
Think of the possibilities:
One quarter per student = >$100
This is the perfect opportunity to rid your house of pennies!
