Raise Craze

 
Welcome to Raise Craze! Our biggest fundraiser of the year kicked off on Monday, September 12th. This is a unique way for us to raise money for our school while making an impact in our community.  What a great way for us to teach our students the importance of kindness and gratitude while raising much needed funds. Students will spend time serving, not selling!
 
The Fundraiser will run from September 12th - September 30 (midnight). During this fundraiser, students ask friends and family for donations via the online Raise Craze platform while paying it forward serving others. Our goal this year is to raise $15,000 and if every student contributes $20 we will hit our goal. I know we can do that with your support!
 
Why We Chose This Way to Fundraise
This year, our PTA has partnered with Raise Craze (www.raisecraze.com) and we couldn’t be more excited! This organization is right in line with our overall belief in teaching our students how to give back by encouraging students to perform Act Of Kindness for others. From completing AOKs, sending emails and/or collecting donations, every student has multiple ways to contribute. 
 
Getting started
To get started with the fundraising and Acts of Kindness (AOK), follow the registration instructions and set up your students account! Please note: Each student will only get “credit” for money donated under his/her own name. “Family” donations should be split between students in the same family for each student to get credit for the donation.
 
Registration Linkmy.raisecraze.com/AQ8RYCW
  1. Enter your student’s name 
  2. Select at least 3 Acts of Kindness
  3. Enter 5-10 email addresses of potential supporters.  Raise Craze will send all emails, reminders and thank you notes. Emails will never be shared with third parties or used for marketing.
Every student can participate in Raise Craze by completing Acts of Kindness (AOK) so we’re aiming for 100% participation. As a little encouragement, PTA will provide some fun prizes to kids who participate and teachers will be recognizing “Kindness On The Spot” when they see students being kind so please talk to your student about ways he or she might show kindness at school.
