Penny Harvest a success at Adams Elementary

Pennies really do add up, and the kids at Adams Elementary are living proof.

The Penny Harvest ended on December 1 of last year, and now the money has been donated. Students at Adams collected 700 pounds of coins or about $1,000. For the past few months, the “Powerful Penny People” (the Penny Harvest leaders at Adams) have been trying to decide which charities to support. Last week, they presented checks to Childhaven, Puget Soundkeeper Alliance, and the Doney Memorial Pet Clinic and Adopt-an-orca through the Whale Museum. (Thanks Bobbi for the tip and photo!)
