Our students are extremely excited about the last 3 Golden Ticket Prizes: an E-bike, a VR Headset and a Macbook, which will be added to the drawing only when we hit our targets.  We are just short of reaching the $30,000 level, which puts an E-Bike to the drawing — please contribute now!

We need everyone to help get those donations in!    It’s not too late so share the link on Facebook, via text or via Pledgestar. For instructions on how to register, click here.  

Donations can also be turned into the office which will count towards your student’s fundraising totals.  ALL DONATIONS must be turned in no later than next Thursday, March 2 at noon.
