Point Elementary School in Oakville, MO holds an annual fundraiser called "Jar Wars" where students bring coins to school to earn positive or negative points for their class. The class with the most positive points at the end of the week wins. The fundraiser has been held since 2000 and has raised over $27,000 total for Basket of Hope, a nonprofit that provides gift baskets for seriously ill children in local hospitals. Students Joshua, Ava, and Ethan participated in 2013 and helped raise over $1,500, and plan to participate every year to support this important cause.
