West JHS Events

Food Drive 2009

West's annual food drive for the Salvation Army begins next Monday, November 9, and will last two weeks. This is an extremely important event because the canned and boxed goods that we collect are used in our community for holiday meals at the Salvation Army and to make food boxes that are distributed to Boyertown residents, our neighbors and friends. The Leo Club has been busy placing boxes in each homeroom and hanging signs throughout the school building that list food preferences like soup, canned fruits and vegetables, pastas, and peanut butter. All donations are greatly appreciated. Please help us help other.

Can Tab Kick-Off

The 2009 Unity Walk was the official kick-off for the Can Tab collection. The district has set a goal of collecting 6 million can tabs which will eventually be donated to the Ronald McDonald House. Why six million? That is the number of Jewish people killed
during the Holocaust. Eleven million people were killed in all. Can Tabs can be dropped off at any Boyertown school, McDonalds, the United Way office, and many other locations in the district.
