Dear Davis Parents,

The Dance for Davis Dance-a-Thon fundraiser kicks off today! Our annual fall fundraiser is typically our biggest school fundraiser of the year!

The Dance-a-thon is a fun event in which students raise money by collecting donations or pledges for dancing a set number of minutes during a special in-school dance day. The Dance-a-Thon takes place at the end of the day on September 18th (6th grade), September 19th (7th grade), and September 20th (8th grade).

HOW IT WORKS
Students invite family, friends, and neighbors to support them by contributing a flat amount for participating in the Dance-a-Thon.

We are excited to streamline our fundraiser by adding an online platform. You will now be able to reach out to friends and family by email, text, Facebook, and Twitter.

Simply search and find your student’s online pledge page at the following link (search by student’s first name and last initial): https://app.99pledges.com/fund/annsimpson

You do not need to login or change anything. Simply make a donation for whatever you can, and share your students’ link with friends and family.
Here is some sample sharing text:

“{{Student’s Name}} is participating in a fundraiser, and would love your support. If you’d like to donate, you can do so online at the following link: {{student’s pledge page url}}

Thank you for your support!”

You will still be able to accept physical cash and check donations, as well, by using the paper donation form and envelope provided. Please return cash and check donations on collection days (9/6, 9/13, or 9/16). Checks should be made payable to Davis PTO.

Funds raised go to support Davis athletics, performing arts, related arts, field trips, scholarships, community events, teacher grants, and so much more. The Davis PTO is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization and your donation is tax deductible. Federal ID number is 31-1246476. Please know that no amount is too small. We appreciate every bit of support!

Please review the complete fundraising information packet that was sent home with students or check out the main fundraising page at https://app.99pledges.com/fund/annsimpson for more information on the fundraiser goals, incentives, and dates.

Thank you again for your ongoing backing and support!
