THANK YOU, CHERRY CREST FOR ALL YOUR SUPPORT!

Thank you Cherry Crest Elementary for coming to the Carnival and all your generous donations for Giving Month. We’re now just $400 short of our $120,000 end of October goal!

This means we’re soooo close to turning our School Dance on February 7th into a professionally DJed dance that also will incorporate grade level performances

Giving Month is Starting Soon

Our Envelope Drive has started as Giving Month (October) is approaching. Help us reach our $120K goal by Oct 31st and an already fun school dance turns into a professional DJed dance. PLUS students will learn new dance moves at school and get to perform at the school dance on Friday, Feb 7th.
