Box Tops
REFUNDING COLLECTION TIME COMING UP!!! Please send in your Box Tops October 21-25. Advisors will have a bag in their classroom for collection. We WILL NOT be running any incentive/prize program with collections this year as the pizza parties in the past have almost cost us more money than we take in with the refunding items. Remember, money earned from Box Tops collections go towards supporting students and teachers of IGHMS.
They now have an app you can download at https://www.boxtops4education.com - with the app, you use a cell phone to scan a store receipt with participating products on it, and the money goes straight to the school. Please download and use the app to help support the group's efforts at the school, and also continue to clip physical Box Tops for as long as you see them on products.
Clothing Closet
We want to thank everyone who has generously donated to the Clothing Closet. We have had so many generous members of our community donate that our closet is bursting at the seams. Therefore, we are not currently accepting donations. Please consider taking your donation to Neighbor’s Inc. and look for an announcement of needs we may have moving forward.
