No cooking or entertaining or perfect house required! They just need a place to crash. This is the NCFCA (National Christian Forensics and Communications Association).

BOX TOP INFORMATION
From Sharon Cox:
In case you didn’t know, CBCCA has 3 ways to earn money for our homeschooling group. The first is Box tops for Education where each Box Top is worth 10 cents. The more that you clip and turn in, the more $$$ we get.
The second is through Project A+ with Tyson Chicken labels. These are worth 24 cents each.
The third way is through Labels for Education, where we don’t earn cash but earn points to purchase things from their catalog.
Please clip and turn them in to the Resource room located in the Children’s building.
Here are the websites so that you can see what products qualify:
