 Fundraising
|
From years of experience, we have discovered that three events have generated
the most funds and allowed all families to participate in one way or another.
Parent participation is required to reach our goals and create a sense of
community for the sake of our children.
Roster Advertising |
Roster Advertisement Form
We are offering HMS parents, family and
friends the opportunity to advertise your business in our 2006-2007
Roster. Ads may be business card size (2” x 3.5”) - $25; half-page size
(4” x 5.25”) - $40; or full-page size (5.25” x 8.25”) - $75.
Fall Sale
Held in early autumn, families sell high quality and reasonably priced
gift wrap and other items to neighbors, friends and co-workers. We ask each
family to sell $100 worth of products or make a cash donation of $50. Our
profit is 50% of sales and with everyone's participation, we could easily make
$7,500. You can order gift wrap and other items year round from
Innisbrook. Your on-line
order will continue to provide benefits for the school. Our school number is
110334.
Annual Giving Campaign
Conducted from November through June, families are invited to contribute
to the Operating, Scholarship, Building, and Endowment funds which support
the school. The Board of Trustees conducts a phonathon to record pledges.
All donations are tax-deductible thanks to our non-profit status. This
is a great opportunity
for those who can afford more to help support our programs. Grandparents,
relatives, alumni and friends of the school join parents to make this campaign
a success each year.
Heartfelt thanks to our donors.
Annual Spring Benefit |
Spring Benefit Auction Page
Parent volunteers organize the annual spring benefit for adults in the HMS
community to gather socially and raise funds for the school. In the past,
we have had great success hosting an auction with items, sponsorships and
ads from parents, friends and relatives, businesses and celebrities. again,
all donations are tax-deductible. The annual spring benefit requires a
team of parents and the participation of all families at some level to
make this a fun and successful event.
