Day of Service Fundraiser Update:
Our sponsors got us off to a great start of $3,750!
We've raised $916 in online Family & Friend Donations!
Total raised so far is $4,666!
Our goal is to raise $25,000 to fully fund PTA programs and events
What is Day of Service?
Day of Service Fundraiser is the PTA's sole large-scale fundraiser of the year, which raises the money needed for the PTA's events and programs like the Halloween Dance, teacher conference dinners, Santa's Breakfast, Family Fun Fair, and Book Buddies.
Similar to a Walk-a-Thon or Fun Run, students raise money through donations, and then, instead of running or walking, they complete service projects to support the Fox Lake community on Wednesday, April 22nd.
Our Goal: $25,000
Anything raised above $25,000 will go into a dedicated account to help fund a future accessible playground at Lotus!
Donations can be made in cash or check (payable to Fox Lake School District 114 PTA) or can be made online here.
Envelopes are due back to school on Tuesday, April 21st.
Please help us reach our goal by asking friends and family members to donate to this worthy cause!
