Win a Game, Give a Chick, Be a Mystery

At this year's fair, students can donate prize tickets to a great cause in lieu of taking a prize. For every two tickets a child donates, a Mystery Donor will contribute $1 to Heifer International, which will deliver chicks or ducklings to a family in need. (The Mystery Donor funding is coming from a group matching our students’ generosity.)  

Bring your own water bottle
Use the free water refill station, and help reduce our plastic bottle use. In just one afternoon, we could save as many as 500 bottles from landfills and prevent the pollution caused by recycling.





To lend a hand or be a Mystery Donor, contact 
pa-GreenTeam@ps87.info.
