During the month of May, milk bottles with a cow holding a Milk Money sign will be present at local businesses and offices.

The Milk Money Project is a grassroots fund-raising campaign started by three local moms and raises money for the Northshore Schools Foundation (NSF) initiative to help advanced and disadvantaged learners.

Milk bottles with a special label will be provided for local businesses to place at cash registers, on counters or in offices to collect spare change to help the more than 180 homeless children in the Northshore School District. Funds are used to buy school clothes, school supplies, books, yearbooks, school pictures and pay test fees, as well as other school-related costs.

All funds raised will be doubled by the Windermere Foundation Northlake office. Those people interested in reserving a milk bottle for their business or would like to make a gift to the campaign, contact the NSF at www.northshoreschoolsfoundation.org or call (425) 408-7680.
