TWO-WEEK GIVING BLITZ - October 17th through October 31st - EXTENDED until November 4th!
This year, we're doing something a little differently at Highland Mill Montessori. Each year the PTA has a 2-week fundraising campaign where we sell items - cookie dough, flower bulbs, team cups, etc. This year, we are conducting a direct giving campaign instead of fundraising through the sale of items. Yes, you read that correctly - NO SELLING!!! In addition to no selling, this means that EVERY DOLLAR stays at HMM! In order to really get things going and to raise the funds we truly need to support our school, we're kicking off our 2-week direct giving BLITZ starting Monday, October 17th!
PRIZES
1. Individual prizes for each child whose family contributes to our campaign
2. Grade-level prizes for the classroom from each grade that has the MOST PARTICIPATION
3. A school-wide celebration if we REACH OUR GOAL of $8000
HOW CAN I GIVE?
Giving is as EASY as clicking on this link:
https://impacthmm-giving-campaign.cheddarup.com
We are offering several COMBO packs with all kinds of cool HMM spirit merchandise that make giving EASY and let you SHOW YOUR HMM SPIRIT. Please share this link with your family, friends, neighbors, etc. and ask them to have an IMPACT on HMM (all contributions are tax deductible). There is no limit to the IMPACT you and your family can have on HMM this year!
We encourage EVERY FAMILY to give AT LEAST $25 per child (enrolled at HMM) so we can REACH OUR GOAL! JUST $25! Some may not be able to give $25, while others may be able to give $100 (or more). Every dollar is important and goes directly to benefit our kids! Don't forget to see if your company has a corporate matching program.
WILL MY EMPLOYER MATCH MY DONATION?
Please take a moment to find out if your employer will match your donation. If there is a process to register the Highland Mill Montessori Parent-Teacher Association, please email highlandmillmontessoripta@gmail.com with the Subject "Matching Funds" and the registration link. We will get that done ASAP and let you know it has been done so that you can make your donation and multiply the IMPACT with an employer match.
WHY SHOULD I GIVE?
We need to raise funds in order to support our school and our kids. The funds raised go to provide so much to our school - classroom supplements, library books, classroom rugs, Fall Festival, Spring Spectacular, Fun Run, Field Day, the Ice Cream Social and so many more events that make Highland Mill Montessori the special place it is for our children. Our kids look forward to all of the fun events each year and we need your contributions to make it all happen.
With the deep budget cuts that the North Carolina educational system has seen over the past few years, it is up to us to provide our children with the materials & technology they need to be COMPETITIVE in our EDUCATIONAL COMMUNITY!
WHAT IF I'VE ALREADY GIVEN?
THANK YOU to the many families who have already contributed to our campaign - we are deeply appreciative. You’ve given our campaign a great start, so each of your kids is already eligible for the individual prizes. They’ll receive those in the next few weeks as we kickoff the campaign blitz.
Please contact highlandmillmontessoripta@gmail.com with any questions. Thank you so much for IMPACTING the kids & teachers of HMM in a BIG WAY!
