COIN WAR BEGINS JAN. 29
Sponsored by 5th grade students
to benefit
Southwest Florida Christian Academy
Hurricane Irma caused devastating damage and closed Southwest Florida Christian Academy for twelve days. The performing arts department alone lost nearly $60,000 in musical instruments, equipment, sheet music and manuals.
Coin War will raise money to help them restock and rebuild.
How does Coin War work?
- Jan. 29 - Feb. 9 students in Full-Day Kindergarten through Sixth Grade can bring in coins to donate to the effort.
- All money will be collected during lunch periods.
- Paper money that is donated will be used to sabotage other classes as a deduction from their coin total.
Who will win Coin War?
Well, that's still to be determined! But, the winning class (the one with the highest total) gets hot chocolate and a movie inside and an extra recess or snow play outside. What a great prize!
So, bring in your coins (or paper money) and help Eden help another Christian school!

BOX TOPS CONTEST
