COMMITTEE Used Postage Stamp
Collection
Used postage stamps are worth money
to charities such as the Red Cross.
Please cut the used postage stamps
off envelopes youfve received (leaving
a little paper round the stamp) and
place the stamps in the collection
boxes outside the PTA Place in the
ES or the JingXi Place in the HUB.
The collection runs from Monday January
15 | Wednesday January 31. Stamps from
ALL countries will be gratefully received.
Small Change Appeal
The Small Change Appeal begins on Thursday
February 1. Put aside your small
change (fen, jiao and yuan) between
now and then to donate to this fund.
The proceeds will sponsor underprivileged
children in China who cannot afford
to go to school. WAB students will
be presented with a brief description
of each child and will be invited
to sponsor one or more children.
Last year a sum of more than 86,000
RMB was raised to send 70 children
to school! Letfs see if we can top
last yearfs efforts and help even
more students receive an education!
Eyeglass Collection
In March, the PTA will be collecting
spectacles/will be sent to Western
China, where people use your unwanted
lenses to see better.
