ART CONTEST for YOUTH to AGE 19

World No Tobacco Day Art Contest

Papillion, NE – The world cannot afford another generation deceived by the lies of the commercial tobacco industry, which pretends to promote freedom of personal choice while really ensuring eternal profits – regardless of the millions of people that pay with their life each year.

Each year Tobacco Education & Advocacy of the Midlands (T.E.A.M.) hosts an annual “Bag the Butts” park clean up in honor of the World Health Organization’s “World No Tobacco Day” on May 31st. This year due to social distancing guidelines, the coalition is instead hosting an art contest to engage community youth in stomping out commercial tobacco use.

Have your youth submit an original drawing or artwork that displays living, working or playing tobacco free. Take a picture or scan their art work and send it via T.E.A.M.’s Facebook messenger (www.facebook.com/teamtobaccofree) or info@TEAMTobaccoFree.org.

Include child’s name, age, address and title of artwork. The contest is open to Sarpy and Cass County youth aged 19 and under. The submission deadline is May 27, 2020.

The T.E.A.M. Steering Committee will vote on the top 3 submissions and will award the following prizes:

• 1st place: $25 Amazon gift card (provided by UNMC Vaping Curriculum Partnership), a t-shirt, art displayed on T.E.A.M. social media/website during the week of World No Tobacco Day!

• 2nd place: T-shift and artwork displayed on T.E.A.M. social media/website during the week of World No Tobacco Day!

• 3rd place: Artwork displayed on T.E.A.M. social media/website during the week of World No Tobacco Day!

For more information about Tobacco Free Parks, call Tobacco Education & Advocacy of the Midlands (T.E.A.M.) at 402.593.3022 or email autumnsky.burns@alegent.org.

WHY FILL OUT THE 2020 CENSUS FORM? 

BECAUSE WE ALL COUNT.

Did you receive a letter from the U.S. Census Bureau yet? If so, be sure to get it filled out and mailed back or you can easily do it online. It only takes a couple of minutes to make a world of difference.

Be sure to have your letter with you when you fill out the form. You'll need the Census ID number on the letter that's assigned to your address. Then go to https://2020census.gov/to complete the form.

Why fill out the form? The information you provide helps the government to determine areas that need federal funding, such as hospitals, food programs, road maintenance, schools, employment opportunities, health-related programs and many others. So you see? This helps you, your family and community.

Another reason to fill it out. IT'S the LAW. Failure to return the form will bring a Census Bureau Interviewer, in person, to your home.

More info can be found here, https://www.census.gov/

Be Sure to Check the State Treasurer’s Unclaimed Property List - YOU Might Have Some Cash Coming to You!

Treasurer John Murante announced, “I encourage Nebraskans to check the Unclaimed Property Report for their own names and the names of their businesses, as well as the names of family members and friends. We may have property you are entitled to, and we want to get you your money,” Murante said.

“While the Unclaimed Property Report is a valuable way for the public to find out about any holdings they may be unaware of, I want to encourage everyone to check out our online database at www.NebraskaLostCash.gov, which is constantly updated.”

The 2020 Tabloid represents $22,786,778 in new unclaimed property reported since last year’s publication. The report will be published as a 28-page tabloid insert in 16 Nebraska newspapers, as required by State Statute.

The Nebraska Treasurer’s Unclaimed Property Division returned $13,663,918 in unclaimed property and paid 17,786 claims in 2019, up from 16,932 claims in 2018.

2018 09 19 backpack

The Conestoga Backpack Pantry serves the Murray, Nehawka, Union and Beaver Lake areas in southeast Nebraska, although we will not turn away anyone in need. Food packs are placed in the childrens' locker at school to take home on the weekends, helping to sustain them until returning to school the following week.

Your kind donation of non-perishable food items can be made at Cornerstone Bank in Murray during business hours, Monday-Friday: 8:00 am-4:00 pm. We can also pick up your items, if you cannot drop them off. Call Jill at 402-660-3543 to make arrangements.

Some ideas are cereal, juice boxes, granola bars, cereal bars, pancake mix, peanut butter, jelly, tuna or chicken salad packs, fruit cups, raisins, cheese and cracker snacks, macaroni and cheese cups, etc. Keep in mind that some of the children are very young and are possibly 'preparing' their own meals. Easy to open containers are a good option for little hands.

Each time you shop, just pick up one thing and set it aside and after a few weeks, drop off your bag of items at the bank or church.

Thank you!
