TELL US ABOUT YOUR PENNY HARVEST

Before your students are tasked with the wonderful challenge of deciding how to best spend their Penny Harvest funds, we want to hear from you about how your students gathered pennies! We value your feedback because as a Penny Harvest Coach, you know best. Please download the Penny Harvest Report and fax it back to (212) 579-3488 by Friday, February 1, 2008.

JANUARY UPDATES

In December, close to 800 NYC schools came together to fill the Penny Harvest Field at Rockefeller Center and show the world what children are capable of. Check out photos and videos from the Penny Harvest Field. During the month, millions of visitors came by to witness the power of children. Many asked how they could start the Penny Harvest in their communities and we look forward to helping coaches just like you bring the Penny Harvest to their schools!
