Lex Brodie's Earn and Learn School Competition

Each and every time your school reserves a HI-5 Community Collection Bin to raise funds between September 1 through March 15, 2010, your school will automatically be entered in Lex Brodie’s “Earn and Learn” school competition. So the more times your school reserves a bin, the greater your chances to win! Prizes include $1000 (first place) and $500 (second place) matching donations to the Oahu schools that collect the most HI-5 containers during the contest period.

Last year, Punahou School won the $1000 prize by raising $762. There was tie for second place with Mid-Pacific Institute ($660) and Waimalu Elementary School ($659).
