Penny Harvest NYC / Metro NY
“It is amazing to know that so many students are ready and willing to help those less fortunate. Every single one of you should feel proud of what you are doing! Seeing your dedication gives us all hope that we will one day end hunger for everyone, everywhere.” Attend or host a check presentation ceremony
After students have made their grant decisions, many schools host check presentation ceremonies where they present their grantee(s) with checks. You can present a certificate to every student and speak about how the money will be used. This is a great time for a constituent to speak about the value of the grant. There are many reasons to take part: • Use this as an opportunity to educate the entire student body about your issue. Send schools a “Thank You” note Address it to the Penny Harvest Coach and the Penny Harvest student leaders. Students love getting mail, and a “Thank You” note can be a great way to spark a lasting relationship with the school. Students and teachers share these notes with the entire school community. Things to consider:
• Write in a different voice than regular thank you notes. Congratulate students on being philanthropists and activists and explain exactly what the money will be used for. Tell the entire community about your partnership You have the power to change attitudes towards children by telling your story – there’s no better way to appreciate them than that! Feature the grant in your newsletter or on your website and be sure to alert the school, as Red Nose Response did.
