MCPS Fundraiser - School Supplies

Here is an interesting news tidbit sent to me from a PTSA listserve.

Apparently, MCPS is doing its own fundraising to help provide school supplies to MCPS.

If you are sorry that you missed this opportunity, I am quite sure that MCPS will be planning other opportunities for you to contribute.

Dear Community Member:

Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) is pleased to announce that we have
partnered with Borders at White Flint Mall for its Benefits Day on August 7,
2010.

Using the attached voucher for your purchases will ensure that part of
the proceeds earned that day will be donated to our MCPS Educational
Foundation. These funds are earmarked for the MCPS Back-to-School Fair
backpack and school supplies drive to help our students start the new school
year with the school supplies they need.

Our ASK MCPS staff will be at White Flint Mall in the Center Court on August
7, 2010, from 10:00 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. to answer questions and to receive
donations of backpacks and school supplies. We also will be collecting these
donations at the Department of Family and Community Partnerships, 850
Hungerford Drive, Room 50, Rockville, Maryland 20850, until August 13, 2010.
For further information, please call our office at 301-279-3100 or visit our
website:http://www.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/departments/familycommunity/fair/
.
Thank you for your support of our students' education and the programs
within Montgomery County Public Schools.
Sincerely,

Eric A. Davis
Director
Department of Family and Community Partnerships
