Annual Family Donation Fund

Thanks to all the families who have already contributed to our Annual Family Donation Fund. This fund supports all Parent Council activities - field trips, cultural events, library books, scholarships for children in need, etc. - and gets each student a free Fort River directory and yearbook! We have now raised $4,200 from 120 of our 347 families (35% of families), and are still hoping for contributions from ALL families; even a $1.00 donation helps increase our goal of 100% family participation! Although we suggest $20 a child, contributions of any size are welcome -- and all contributions are tax deductible (and anonymous). Checks (to Fort River Parent Council) or cash can be sent to the Parent Council mailbox in the main office. FYI, we are running behind compared to our donations from last year, so if you have forgotten, please send your donations in! Thanks!
