ONGOING FUNDRAISERS
We continue to participate in the following
ongoing fundraisers which help support
our programming.
Bottle and Can Drive
Thank you to all of the families who
have brought in and continue to bring in
their five-cent deposit bottles and cans in
support of our program! To donate to our
bottle and can drive, simply drop off your
returnable beverage containers in one of
the large collection boxes located in the
ECDP main entrance. You may also return
your bottles and cans directly to F-M
Returnables at 202 West Seneca St. (Route
173) in Manlius, near Smith’s Plaza. Just
tell them that returnables are for the ECDP
program at the JCC, account #21, and the
monies will go directly to our program.
Once again, thank you!
Delta Sonic
Keep your vehicle kissing clean throughout
the year with the help of Delta Sonic! Car
wash tickets can be purchased at the ECDP
office or the JCC’s main office front desk.
Wall of Hands
Your child can become
a permanent part of our
program’s history! ECDP
families can preserve
their child’s handprint on
our Wall of Hands for years to come. An
initial handprint is $36 and $18 for each
successive year. Each colorful, 6’’x 6’’ tile
