CHALLENGE COMPLETED
STUDENTS REBUILD LITERACY CHALLENGE 2014 - 2015
LETS EDUCATE SOME KIDS!
This challenge involves making bookmarks to support education programs in Peru, Mali and Napal. (Check out their 1 minute 37 second video). Each bookmark donated will be matched by $1.00 up to a total of $300,000 by the Bezos Foundation.
We will be sending our bookmarks in through photos to eliminate the mailing costs. After photos have been submitted we suggest that you may use these bookmarks to fundraise for your own Organization or school. Attach a small paper stating that the bookmark has already raised funds for one purpose and can now help our local causes. Or distribute them free to children or libraries. The choice is yours.
For every 25 bookmarks submitted 1 ticket will be added to our draw. There will be 4 drawings of $50.00 increments. (Individuals who are entered will choose a charity or school to donate to should they win.)
**Update, this turned into a family and friends team. We donated only one of the 4 available prizes. This donation went to WaterAidCanada.ca. This will enable 2 children to have clean water for their lifetime.
