Win $10,000 for your School from Del Monte First Day of School Photo Contest

Soon I’ll be trying out the all new Del Monte Fruit Squeezers. I’ll even have a contest so that you can win some to try yourself. But before I get my samples I wanted to tell you about a contest that could get you $10,000 for your school.

Del Monte is launching the “First Day of School Photo Contest” through Facebook! All you have to do is upload an original photo of your child on their first day of school or yourself on your own first day of school. The top 20 Finalist photos will be posted to the Del Monte Fruit Squeezers website, and fans will have the chance to vote for their favorite photo. The winning entry will receive a $10,000 donation to a school of their choice!

Here is how to get started: Continue reading Win $10,000 for your School from Del Monte First Day of School Photo Contest

Preview of Our Christmas is for Kids Donation 2012


Photo-A-Day #2793

Christmas is for Kids is a program in my area that collects christmas gifts for kids to be distributed to parents who are in need. For the last few years we have been fortunate to be able to make donations to the program through the Annual Toy Drive sponsored by Achin’s Garage. Each year we set aside money every month to go on a shopping trip with the kids to buy toys for Christmas is for Kids. We started doing this to help Eva understand how lucky she is and also how we can help people in our area. Toys are things that she can understand. She can feel sad that kids might not have toys on Christmas. She enjoys going and selecting toys for kids. She was also such a big help as we reviewed all of the toys.

Tomorrow is the Toy Drive and I decided to set up all the toys on our stairs like we did last year. I went back in my posts to find all the posts of our trips to the Christmas is for Kids Annual Toy Drive. Check out these past year’s.

I’m blown away by all the great companies that helped us with this year’s donation. I still have a few more to post tomorrow as well.
