Thank you!
THANK YOU to everyone who chose to support your school through the Drive for Schools fundraiser. It is an important one in that it allows all of us to reach outside our own pocketbooks to friends, relatives, neighbors, and business associates. Along this line, thank you to Jessica Cambell for setting up the ticket sales opportunity at Deluxe Foods in Aptos.
Drive for Schools raised $13,755 for our annual and capital funds, which, unfortunately, was quite a bit short of the $20,000 goal. We will need to make up this shortfall in our other fundraising efforts this year.
The drawing will be held at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk on Sunday, October 27, 2013. **Need not be present to win**
Background:
Mount Madonna School is participating in the Drive for Schools fundraiser.
100% of ticket sales go to MMS.
Join us on Saturday, October 12 at Deluxe Foods at the Deer Park Shopping Center in Rio Del Mar from 10am-3pm at the Mount Madonna School Booth to sell tickets. This is a great opportunity for students can practice their public speaking skills!
Just show-up or email Jessica at . If you think you will have unsold tickets and cannot help on the 12th, please return them to School by Thursday, October 10th so others can sell them at the booth.
Our goal is $20,000. Classes who sell the most (average per student) will celebrate with a pizza party! Classes who reach their per class goal will also celebrate. Students who sell the most tickets will receive prizes.
Please return ALL stubs, money, and any unsold tickets by Thursday, October 17th.
