Loose Change Will Help Boomerang Backpacks
SYRACUSE — Even small change received after a purchase can go to a good cause.
Wawasee High School’s Future Business Leaders Club is working on a community wide service project to raise funds for the Boomerang Backpacks program. Change stations have been distributed at 11 businesses throughout Syracuse and North Webster, all of them located on SR 13.
Whenever someone does not want their change after a purchase, they can donate it to the Boomerang Backpacks cause. All of the change will be collected throughout the school year and near the end of the school year a check will be presented to Boomerang Backpacks. One hundred percent of the change will be donated to Boomerang Backpacks.
A couple more change stations will be added in the near future. Those in place now include:
