Why fundraising is important:

Fundraising will help us to address the challenges we're facing and to provide our students with the quality education they deserve. With your help, we can:

• Hire more teachers and reduce class sizes

• Offer more extracurricular activities and enrichment programs
• Provide scholarships to help students with financial need

Two student-centered areas:

The funds raised from this campaign will be used to support two student-centered areas:

• Technology: We will use the funds to purchase new technology for our classrooms, such as laptops, tablets, and interactive whiteboards. This technology will help our students to learn in new and innovative ways.
• Extracurricular activities: We will use the funds to support our extracurricular activities, such as sports, clubs, and arts programs. These activities provide our students with opportunities to develop their talents and interests, and they also help to build community.

Conclusion:

I urge you to join me in supporting our school division. Your donation will make a difference in the lives of our students.

Thank you for your time.
