Working Together to Help
I enjoyed being a part of the Penny Harvest during my fourth grade school year at Roessleville. What I enjoyed most was being able to help groups in the community, such as The Ronald McDonald House, the animal shelter and the Juvenile Diabetes Association.
What I learned while working with the other fourth grade students in this program is that it feels so good to give back to the community.
Solid Ground administers the Penny Harvest in Seattle/King County in coordination with Common Cents
Common Cents is pleased to announce that Judith Shapiro, President of Barnard College, has accepted the position of chair of the Board of Trustees of Common Cents, effective immediately.
OCTOBER To kick off the harvest, students “reinvent the wheel” as each school creates a giant ‘Wheel of Caring.’ The wheel represents the issues the students care about and motivates everyone to gather pennies.
Common Cents won the NY1 New Yorker of the year award for 2007.
