Stroll-For-A-Goal Fundraiser - 15,000

As your principal, I wanted to provide some words of encouragement for Sibley’s first annual “Stroll-For-A-Goal.” As parents and community members, fundraising for additional activities and school projects will continue to be something we work in partnership to provide. However, we also recognize that selling food items is not something people enjoy doing, or enjoy being asked to buy frequently.   This year, we have decided to try something different.  During the day, students are going to walk between 1 and 4 miles and raise money in the process.  We also recognize that with a traditional food fundraiser, a portion of the proceeds goes to the company. If thinking about health isn’t enough, Sibley’s “Stroll-For-A-Goal” will guarantee that 100% of the proceeds goes exactly where we all want it anyway, the school. There is a long list of activities and items that our PTO works hard to continue to provide and their efforts, your efforts as parents, should be applauded.
 
As we get closer to our celebratory kick-off event on October 12th, and ONLY planned fundraiser for the year, we hope that you will help us in making it a successful endeavor. Our goal is 15,000 and we hope you will support our students as they seek pledges for our walk.  Thank you.
