Foodland Shop For Higher Education
 
It's that time of year again! The annual Foodland Shop for Higher Education Program will run from February 4 to March 17. All you need to do is show your Foodland or Sack 'n' Save Maika'i Card to any cashier and give our school code: 7475. Once you give the code, you need not do so any other time as you will automatically be registered. If you do not have a Maika'i card, simply go to the information booth and get one. It's FREE! Then, every time you purchase something from Foodland or Sack 'n' Save, Moanalua will receive points. If we collect enough points, we will receive one $2000 scholarship. If we are in the top 20 statewide, we receive another scholarship. In fact, the higher we go, the more scholarships we can get. Historically, Moanalua places around 35th or 36th every year. Let's try to improve on that and at least get into the top 20!- S. Pang
 
Spring Food Drive
 
It's that time of year again! Moanalua has always been generous with food donations, and with the poor economy, even more people will be looking for assistance. You can do your share by bring canned foods, dry noodles or bags of rice to your homeroom between now and March 5. Also, monetary donations are accepted. Every fifty-cents will count as one item. Remember, you will be helping others less fortunate and, this is also a class competition! All donations must be brought to the back of the library by the end of CAP on March 5.- S. Pang
