Penny Wars- Bring on the Change!
Our annual Penny Wars is taking place Tuesday April 5-Friday April 8th. Funds generated are donated to the IEA Children Fund, a non-profit endowment fund. IEA members can access the funds for the needs of public school children. Examples of past uses of the fund are acquiring glasses, coats, shoes and medical supplies. In fact one year a family was provided with airfare to Seattle so a specialist could perform a medical procedure on their child. Each class competes against other classes, trying to collect the most pennies in their jar, while avoiding silver and bills (all money goes to the endowment, but silver/bills counts against a classes total). We hope you encourage your child to participate in this fun, worthwhile event that benefits the more needy children of pubic education.
