  Back Pack Fundraiser

  
  We have partnered with Whole Foods for our district back pack fundraising efforts.  They are very interested in supporting our schools.  They have donated money to each school to purchase products from Whole Foods to create "goodie baskets".  These baskets are being raffled off at each school and will be at Whole Foods on the school's designated evening.
  
  As part of the Maine community, they make every effort to participate in sponsorship of local schools and nonprofits. They recognize that there are countless worthwhile organizations and individuals to work with and would love to be involved with all of them!  They review all requests and support those organizations that most closely align with Whole Foods Market's core values. They are currently focusing on children’s health, education and school needs.
  
  

  Bonny Eagle Middle School will be at Whole Foods on Tuesday, October 6th with these baskets.  We are selling raffle tickets, one for $2.00 and three raffle tickets for $5.00.  We also have the baskets on display in the main office.  Come in, check out the baskets and support our backpack program.

  
  

  Whole Foods will also select the top three school district projects that they feel are eligible for a 5% Day. They donate 5% of one day’s net store sales to the selected school district. 5% Days tend to raise $5,000-$7,000.

  BEMS BackPack Mission
  
  
  The mission of the BackPack Program is to meet the needs of chronically hungry children by providing them with nutritious and easy to prepare food to take home on weekends and school vacation when the school meals they depend on during the week are unavailable to them.  Participating children are selected based on a need by school personnel.  Each Back Pack bag contains a variety of shelf stable, healthy food items.
  
  
  We believe that when a child is fed, they are equipped to learn, grow and imagine a future filled with opportunity.  This is a program that provides nutrition, eases their anxieties, reduces absenteeism, improves attention span, raises academic performance and increases self-esteem.
  
  
  
  
  Willing to Donate??
  
  
  Some suggested items are: fruit drinks/boxes, mini cereal boxes, fruit cups, applesauce, raisins, granola bars, mac n cheese (boxes and individual servings), canned soups, canned veggies, prepared canned meals, tuna, crackers, prepared microwave meals, pudding, individual snack size snacks, fruit snacks, pasta, pasta sauce, peanut butter, jelly, packaged meals, rice a roni, Idahoan potato packages, pasta sides packages, hamburger helper, powdered milk, … really anything that a student can heat up to feed themselves. 
  Please, no glass jars.
