Empower Your Child’s Education: The “Let’s Come Together” Campaign

Dear Carnarvon Elementary Families,

Imagine a school where every child has access to cutting-edge technology, engaging learning materials, and enriching experiences. That’s the vision we’re bringing to life with our “Let’s Come Together” Campaign, and we need your help to make it a reality!

Your Donation: A Direct Investment in Your Child’s Education

This year, we’re cutting through the clutter of multiple fundraisers and going straight to the heart of what matters. We are asking each family to consider a direct donation of $100 per student or any amount that fits your budget. Here’s why this matters:

– 100% of your donation goes directly to enhancing your child’s learning environment

– One simple donation replaces multiple fundraisers, saving you time and hassle

– Your contribution is tax-deductible (for donations over $20 via School Cash Online)

Β The Impact of Your Generosity

Your donation will fuel a range of exciting initiatives, including:

– πŸ“š Classroom resources chosen by teachers ($9,000)

– 🎡 New ukuleles and winter concert music ($600)

– πŸ“ Pickle Ball equipment for fun, active learning ($3,500)

– πŸ–₯️ Technology upgrades with ViewSonic TVs ($6,000)

– 🚌 Field trips, including a VSO concert for grades 3-7 ($1,000)

– πŸ“– Literacy programs and new books for classrooms ($2,000)

– πŸŽƒ Community-building events like our Pumpkin Patch ($1,550)

… and much more! Our total goal is $30,000, and every dollar brings us closer to providing an exceptional education for our students.

How Your $100 Makes a Difference

When you donate $100, you’re not just giving money – you’re opening doors:

– πŸ“± A year of RazKids digital reading for 3 students

– πŸ€ New sports equipment for an entire PE class

– πŸ“– 5 new books for your child’s classroom library

– πŸŽ“ Access to parent education programs that support your child’s learning at home
