BHS "Fill the Truck" Band Fundraiser

9/16/2023 1:14 pm

THE GOODWILL TRUCK IS COMING TO BELLEVUE HIGH SCHOOL ON SATURDAY October 21st.

Bellevue High School Lower Parking Lot
Saturday, October 21st, 9 am – 12pm or when the 2 trucks are full.
Come early!

Help the Bellevue High School Band Boosters raise money by cleaning out your closets and garage. Goodwill is bringing a truck to BHS on Saturday, October 21st to accept donations of used goods. Normally, Goodwill does not pay when you donate your stuff, but they have a special program for schools. The more trucks we can fill, the more money to support the Bellevue High Band (and you'll get a donation tax receipt).

You can bring almost everything (OLD TVs, COMPUTERS, SMALL ELECTRONICS, RIPPED CLOTHING, BROKEN TOYS, etc. - what Goodwill can’t sell to the public, they sell to scrap dealers). Please note that items CANNOT be any bigger than an end table. Additional exclusions at http://www.seattlegoodwill.org/donate/donate-items/donation-guidelines

This is a fundraiser for the Bellevue High Band Boosters

Library Volunteer Training

When: Wednesday, Sept 17th 8:00-9:00AM

Where: Medina Elementary Library

Do you enjoy keeping things tidy and organized? Can you alphabetize names in English, numerically sort and order books with call numbers that extend into multiple decimal places, and be detail oriented? Would you like to help shelve books and help kids at the library this year?

If you answered YES, then please sign up for Library Training where our two librarians, Ms. Mitchell and Ms. McClelland, will go over how the library is organized and where different books are shelved. Library volunteers from previous years, please also plan on attending for an information refresh.

We are looking for eager volunteers who can come to the library at least once a month, if not more frequently, and we are especially looking for help with the younger grades, Kindergarten in particular.

Please sign up here for the library training session on Sept 17th: Library Training Sign up

Please contact Stephanie Hsu, the Medina Library Volunteer Coordinator, at library@medinapta.org with any questions.

Thank you for your interest!
