When your school participates in the Student Series' Pennies for Patients Program, you'll receive all the supplies and materials that you need to have a meaningful and fun campaign! The following is a list of the supplies that LLS provides. Once registered, your LLS representative will discuss the materials with you and order them for you.

Classroom Collection Boxes: Assemble and place boxes in each classroom for coin collection. You may also put boxes in the Cafeteria, Main Office, Media Center, Teachers' Lounge, etc. Student

Collection Boxes: Boxes for each student to take home to collect change, or keep in their locker to collect change from lunch, etc. Tip: Pass these out a few weeks before your campaign and have a Day One Contest. On Day One, the top fundraiser in each class wins a prize. 

Parent Letters: One letter per student is provided for elementary and middle schools to take home to their parents or guardian. This letter details the program and features our national Honored Hero. For a digital version of this letter, click here.

Hero Poster: This poster features our Honored Hero. Hang the poster in your school to put a face to your coin collection, and help your students to understand how their spare change can really count.

School Thermometer Chart: Hang in a prominent place and write in your school's goal. Color in the thermometer on a daily or weekly basis as donations come in so students can track their progress.

Classroom Thermometer Chart: Classroom chart for individual classes to track progress on the way to a Bronze, Silver, or Gold Pennant. Each classroom should receive a chart and a class collection box.

Student Series Poster: Colorful poster advertising Pennies for Patients. Display in the hallways or in the cafeteria to raise awareness of the campaign. Don't forget to write in your program dates.
