 Save Your Receipt: Econo Foods Computers for Kids Program Benefits Library

Time to collect your receipts from Econo to benefit the Van Pelt Library at Michigan Tech. Through its Computers for Kids program, Econo Foods donates to the Friends 1 percent of the sum of all Econo receipts collected. These funds are used to pay for computer systems in the library. In 2006-07, the Friends of the Van Pelt Library collected Econo receipts that totaled $46,338.49. As a result, Econo Foods donated $463.38 to the Friends.  Many thanks to those who participated, and a big "keep it up" to all.

Want to help?  Please collect your receipts from Econo Foods and send them to us or drop them in the collection box at the circulation desk of the Library. Please send your receipts by intercampus mail to either Mary Marchaterre (Admin 209) or Faith Morrison (Chemical Engineering - 304A Chem Sci). 

Want to help more?  Put out a collection box in your area and encourage your coworkers to bring in their receipts for our library.  There are drop boxes in the Chemical Engineering office (203 Chem Sci), the Chemistry office (607 Chem Sci), at the Library circulation desk, in the coffee room on the 2nd floor of the Admin building, and in the basement of the EERC.  Every little bit helps.
