Starting October 1st Good Eggs is partnering with Harvey Milk for a fundraiser! New Good Eggs customers get $15 off their first order and 5% will go back to the school during October and November 2018!

How to join the fundraiser:

1. Visit schools.goodeggs.com.
2. Enter the code HARVEYMILK18 and click “Shop Now.”
3. Add your groceries to your Good Eggs basket and place your order. You will see confirmation text on the checkout page that says “You’re supporting Harvey Milk Civil Rights Academy!”

As an extra incentive, if 20 HMCRA families try Good Eggs using the school code, we will get a $500 fundraising bonus added to the 5% from all orders.

The Breakfast Project is a non-profit culinary arts program serving the students of HMCRA. We integrate hands-on cooking classes into the fabric of school life, connecting students more deeply to their own bodies, each other, and their local communities. Classes offered as part of the YMCA morning and after-school programs start the week of September 3!

Please visit www.breakfastproject.org/programs for details about our Chefs in the City* and Soup Squad classes this fall. Interested families must first have filled out the YMCA application and returned it to school. Financial assistance is available.

*A short, program-specific registration form is required for Chefs in the City only. Online submissions are welcome and hard copies are available at dropoff with the YMCA.

Please contact Joyce Lin-Conrad at joyce@breakfastproject.org with any questions!
