Ronald McDonald House Pop Top Challenge
This year Greenwood will be participating in the RMHC Pop Top Challenge! Schools in the Greater Richmond area will be competing to see who can collect the most pop tops by the Spring of 2024. The school with the greatest amount collected will be recognized by the Ronald McDonald House Charities. Not only does this come with a great recognition, but this will also help relieve the stress these families endure, and help to pay for families to stay for free at the Ronald McDonald House.
We will also be making this into a Greenwood House Competition as well with the buckets outside of the cafeteria. When a house fills up their bucket, they will receive 10 house points.
