It’s time to get ready to fundraise!! Registration is now open for our KCC 2024 Dance Off, powered by Booster! Booster is a fun organization that assists schools just like ours in raising funds across the country. They’ve thought through every detail on how to make this program fit our school’s needs, while raising the most money. We’re excited for the expertise to make this EASY for everyone involved- including YOU! With the help of Booster, last year we were able to raise $30,426!
Flyers went home with students this week with information on how to register, but we are including plenty of information here to help answer any questions you might have.
First, log in/sign up at MYBOOSTER.COM to register. You can do this by searching for the school by name. Students get a FREE prize just for being registered. On the site, families can access easy-to-use links and content to connect students with sponsors by sharing their fundraising link on Facebook, through email, or even text. Sponsors can enter and pay for those donations online through the students’ fundraising link!
The Details:
WHAT: The KCC Falcons Dance Off is a 10-day fundraising program. This large-scale fundraising provides enrichment programs (Field Trips; guest speakers and presentations); extra classroom supplies, books, and a number of community events for our students, families, and more!
WHEN: The fundraiser kicks off on 5/1 and culminates in an actual Dance Off at the school on 5/10. Each classroom is scheduled to dance on the field for the dedicated number of minutes each class has raised funds. The average student completes 30-35 minutes. The schedule of when students will be "dancing" will be shared ahead of time and families are welcome to come watch, participate and cheer on!
WHO: Booster is an online school fundraising platform and partner that helps PTO to raise funds. It provides an easy-to-use platform for tracking donations etc. Booster also provides educational content that teachers share each day of the fundraising period to generate excitement. This year's theme is World Changer Workshop.
Our goal this year is $20,000. Together, WE CAN MAKE THAT HAPPEN!
If anyone has questions or would like to participate in making this fundraising event a success, please email kccptopresident@gmail.com.
