HyVee Dollars 4 Scholars - USD 384 Blue Valley
Do you shop at the Hy-Vee in Manhattan, KS? If yes, then we encourage folks to place all Hy-Vee receipts (fuel and grocery shopping purchases) into the Dollars for Scholars USD 384 Blue Valley pull-out bin located between the Hy-Vee customer service desk and Caribou Coffee found within the store. For every $150 collected in receipts, $1 will be earned, up to $2,000 for the school year. This is one more way you can support our school without spending a dime!
