Del Monte Fresh produce is launching an online contest called Teacher Monday: Cash for Classrooms. Beginning October 18, each week, for five consecutive weeks, ten K-12 public school teachers will be selected win $750 in cash and $250 in fresh fruit gift certificates to purchase school supplies for their classrooms. The fruit is for classroom snacks and to encourage healthy eating habits.

To apply, teachers need to register online and submit a short essay (up to 500 words) describing how the funds will be spent. Winning is based solely on the number of votes received online so encourage friends, family, parents, and students to get online and vote!
