Posted on by
We are lucky to be partnering with Besst Realty to assist in their goal of raising 100,000 cans of food to help local food banks between now and November 9th. Besst Realty is donating $20,000 to the schools that participate in this service project, and, to date, there are 14 schools participating.  The $20,000 in donations will be awarded as follows:

The grade (K-5 & 6-9) that has the most cans of food donated by Wednesday, Nov. 2 will get a free dress-down the following day. Cans will be counted again on Monday, Nov. 7. The winning grade will get another free dress down day!
