Assist DBFE students and teachers in collecting tabs and Yoplait Pink Lids for two great causes! Students are asked to bring in (cleaned) pink lids from Yoplait yogurt, and turn them into their classroom teachers. Lids will be turned in by Mrs. Alvarez during Winter Recess. Please have them in by Thursday, December 19th.
Should you have any tabs from drink cans, pet cans, or any other can that has a tab, please turn these in as well. Mrs. Alvarez will be dropping off DBFE’s first batch during the Winter Recess. Continue to collect the tabs throughout the year. The second drop off will be in April.
Many thanks to all who participate and special thanks Mrs. Alvarez for her efforts in orchestrating these collections!
TAB-A-THON Contest:
“Participate in the Tab-a-thon and help the Ronald McDonald Houses of South Florida.
Collecting aluminum tabs is a fun and easy way to recycle and more importantly make a difference in the lives of children and families. Since the start of the Tab-A-Thon program in 2005, almost $30,000 has been raised on this program and continue to raise funds for our Houses. This is over 40 million pop-tabs that have been collected and recycled! Our goal is to continue to collect the pop-tabs in 2014 to benefit the environment and continue to raise funds to our Houses.”

Yoplait Pink Lids:
“With every lid redeemed, you’re helping women and families in your community. Donations triggered through Save Lids to Save Lives will benefit Susan G. Komen® and its network of more than 120 local Affiliates. General Mills’ partnership with Susan G. Komen® has supported millions of women fighting the disease in communities across the country by helping to fund education, treatment and research initiatives.”

Help those in need this holiday season! Donate to the annual toy drive at Dante B. Fascell Elementary School.
There are many homeless children in the shelters of our community that are in need of gifts this holiday season. Help us make a difference in the life of a child by bringing in a new unwrapped toy, as follows:
We are also accepting donations of NEW clothing or shoes for adults or children as well as shampoo, diapers, wipes, toothbrushes, and deodorant.
As we teach our students about wants and needs, we hope you will consider making a donation to help those less fortunate.
Bring in your items by Friday, December 13, 2013
We will be delivering these items before the holidays to the Chapman Partnership for Homeless. For over 10 years, with the help from public and private organizations, thousands of toys, clothes, and other necessities have been donated to this shelter. They depend on donations from the community.
