November is Homeless Awareness Month, and Pine Avenue wants to bring awareness of housing insecurity and homelessness within our communities. We are partnering with United Way to raise money for Gratiot County Hope House through a coin war challenge called “Coins for a Cause”!
United Way is committed to matching all funds raised (up to $10,000), so now’s your chance to double your donation! Students can bring in their spare change during November. The classroom that raises the most money will win a pizza party from United Way!
