Post date: Nov 22, 2010 7:18:30 PM
Get ready for the Lisha Kill “Stuff the Bus” Challenge! Starting on Monday, November 29th through Friday, December 3rd , the Lisha Kill School Store will be collecting unwrapped toys for the South Colonie and Marines Toys for Tots Campaign.
Our challenge, as a school, is to collect 200 toys. These toys will then be donated to children throughout the Capital District. Toys for Tots, sponsored by the Marine Corps, provides toys to some 60,000 children each year in our area.
Here is how it will work:
-Students and staff can bring in toys Monday, November 29th through Friday, December 3rd
-Unwrapped, new toys will be collected in the main lobby, by the school store, before homeroom.
-For each toy you donate, you will receive a small gift in appreciation (pen, pencil, etc.) and a raffle ticket to enter to win a school store gift certificate.
-On Monday, December 6th the 5th graders will participate in a ceremony to present the toys to the Marine Corps.
