With many school budget cuts, it is nearly impossible to keep some after school activities open. This is where fundraising comes into play. Holding fundraisers to help keep your after school activities open while not dipping into the school’s budget is a great idea.
Canby School District poured in more than 1,300 hours in 65 recording sessions to create a CD of holiday songs. They plan on selling this CD at a free concert where all proceeds go to benefit the Stay and P.L.A.Y. (Productive Learning After school for Youth) program, which keeps kids off the streets once school is out.
The goal is to sell 2,000 CDs which should keep the after school program funded for two years.
