Last Day !! SNAP Raise FundraiserWe are down to the final three days of our SNAP fundraiser. While we have made great progress, we are far under last year's final number of $13,918. We want to thank everyone who participated and got us this far! We know that there are many many causes that need donations right now, so we thankful for where we are.
If you have not participated, there still time! Please consider sending the SNAP link to family and friends. Even $10 helps significantly. We want to make sure that we are creating a rich program for all of our students. When we do not make our annual fundraising goals, we have to cut out or cut down on the activities and purchases that the Boosters fund. If we do not make our snap target (beating last year's number) that means we need to add on additional fundraisers throughout the year in hopes that we do not have to cut away parts of the program. We will need your help for those fundraisers as well! We will be presenting the Booster budget at the September 19 General Meeting for your approval. In short, the Boosters must raise $25,000 this year to fund the program. For family and friends who are not comfortable donating online, please feel free to mail a check made out to "PGH Band Boosters". The checks can be sent in with your student or mailed directly to the school made to the attention of Mike Souliere. Please feel free to reply to this email with any questions.
