Schools Collect pennies or other coins. Some schools collect all kinds of change, but sometimes it's fun to restrict the collection. Have Events. Many middle schools opt out of collecting diapers, but opt in for having a dance, bake sale or other event, with proceeds going to The Diaper Bank Hold a Contest. Contests & challenges work between classes, between grades, and from faculty to students. Use the concepts of poverty and philanthropy in your lesson plans. Discuss the cost of raising a family, minimum wage, the cost of diapers and other necessities as part of a family budget, and the importance of education. Teach your kids about how they can make a difference in the life of someone they don’t even know. Companies Have inter-departmental competitions. Give the winning department a pizza party. Advertise in your company newsletter. Send out fliers, paycheck stuffers.
