Reminder for Gala Basket Donations
Please send donations for the Gala basket tomorrow. If you are not able to send it tomorrow and would like to still donate, please email me. We currently have 2 items and would love more. All money made from our basket goes directly back into our school.
Gala Auction Basket
Our 6th annual Gala is quickly approaching and this year the committee is asking for our help. Classroom teachers have been asked to create a basket which will be auctioned at this years event. The Gala is the schools largest fundraising event each year. Last years proceeds were used to buy new computers, which we have enjoyed so much this year. We are not asking for you to go out and spend money, but if you have your own business and would like to donate an item or service, or know someone close to you who does (Grandparent, sibling, aunt, close friend, etc.), or maybe you have a new item around your house that you don’t need or a gift card you may not likely use, please consider donating it to our basket. Our basket will follow the theme: Sharpening your Saw. This follows the Steven Covey 7 habits that students learn about at school. (I included a description at the bottom of this post). Some possible ideas: Doterra, Pampered Chef, homemade soaps, new book, gift card to restaurant, movie tickets, salon service, etc. anything would be fabulous. I ask that we have items brought into the classroom Monday, March 14th. Thank you for your consideration is helping this worthy cause that directly helps your child. The proceed makes such a difference and we cannot do it without you! I hope to see everyone at the Gala on Friday March 18th. |
