Electronics Recycling Drive a Big Success!

On Saturday, December 1 the school held its first electronics recycling drive in conjunction with e-EndUSA, an electronics recycling company based in Frederick, Md.  The event raised more than $1,000 for the school’s computer lab and more than 10,000 pounds of unwanted electronics was collected. In November students took a field trip to e-EndUSA to learn more about the disposal of computers and related equipment.

 

Thanks to the following companies for providing in-kind donations for the event:  Henry Lewis Contractors, LLC, Papa John’s Pizza, and Penske Truck Leasing.

Gigamajig
 

On a blustery evening in January, more than 300 supporters, staff, and students of Hannah More School gathered at the beautiful Grand Masonic Lodge in Hunt Valley for the fifth Gigamajig fundraiser. The theme for this year’s event, “Fly Your Kite,” lent itself to the creation of a spectacular backdrop for the enormous silent and live auctions, which featured close to 300 items. The entire space was decorated with brightly colored kites, each one created by students, staff, or board members of the school. The event netted more than $65,000, which will be used to provide programs and services for students.  To view the photos of the event click here.
