FUNDRAISING BAKE SALE INFORMATION
From Anna Apodaca, Home and School
Association President:
Information
has been sent out to all families regarding the upcoming St. Therese
Fundraising Bake Sales. I want to clear up a few questions that have come
up.
1) We are having these bake sales for St. Therese School. All monies
raised from this fundraiser goes directly into the school’s general
operating account.
2) These bake sales are mandatory. We must have 100% participation from
all families in order for this fundraiser to be a success. Even if you
have fulfilled your 20 hours of work service hours, you need to
participate in this fundraiser.
In order to keep tuition rates down (St. Therese School has one of the
lowest tuition rates in the city), we have to fundraise. It’s as simple as
that. Home & School works on ways to fundraise for our school and works
with room parents on classroom parties, etc. The idea of the bake sales
was brought up and approved at a Home & School meeting. Meeting dates and
times are listed in the school newsletter and also emailed out. If you
want to be involved in future fundraising ideas, please come to the Home &
School meetings. We would love your input and ideas.
Room parents work very hard to keep communication flowing to all the
families in your child’s classroom. They are keeping you informed on what
is going on at our school. Please take a moment sometime to thank your
Room Parent for the hard work they put into your child’s classroom. They
are sending out or have already sent out information regarding your
classroom’s bake sale. Please sign up for a baked item and volunteer some
time for your bake sale. Remember….we do all this hard work for our
children and their future!
As you know, St. Therese School is a wonderful place for our children to
learn and grow in a safe environment. We are very fortunate to have
devoted teachers and small classroom sizes. We have to all help out in
these fundraising events so that St. Therese School can continue to grow.
Please see the next page for a list of the Bake Sale Dates. Mark your
calendars and plan on participating!
Thank you to all St. Therese Families and all the wonderful things you do
for St. Therese School -may God Bless you, your families, and the teachers
& staff of our beloved St. Therese School.
If you have any questions, please contact me at 897-9084 or mamadaca@hotmail.com.

a donor makes a gift to St. Therese Catholic School, we are sincerely
grateful. But when a donor's employer honors the gift by matching

many companies match donations to non-profit organizations.
