Hey everyone,

The National BETA Club is holding its annual canned food drive from Tuesday 3/20 to Thursday 3/29.

All BETA members are REQUIRED to bring in 2 cans, for which they will receive 5 points. (yup, we're forcing you to get points)
Eligible foods include soups, beans, canned fruit, etc.

SENIORS WHO NEED SERVICE CREDITS to graduate can bring in 3 cans, which will get you one service credit.

Keep in mind that these should not be empty cans!

Thank you, and please help spread the word.

No, this is for seniors only. If you'd like to donate for the sake of donating, that is even more welcome.

And where would the senior donators go to get their service credit? Obviously the students collecting cans can't sign it. ;)

It is a school wide event. We said seniors would get service credits for it. The other grades are not eligible for credits, as we discussed it with Mr. Williams.


by the way, for those who are curious: after the drive is over, we'll share the list with COSAs and Mr. Williams. And that is how seniors will get their lists. We cannot sign the SGO cards.
