Gold Star Breakfast turned Gold Star Campaign
Today is the scheduled date for the Gold Star Fundraising Breakfast. Instead, we are in the midst of the online Gold Star Campaign. Since we cannot be together as planned, we'd like to share some what we had planned here. To start us off, here is a welcome message from our Board President, Justin Kraft:
As Justin shared, the Gold Star Breakfast is typically the Highline Schools
Foundation's largest fundraiser of the year. But it is also a celebration of our
Gold Star Award winners and of the community that supports the work we do in Highline Public Schools all year long.

Make your gift to the Highline Schools Foundation
There is no cost to attend the Gold Star Breakfast. However, we ask guests to make a a gift of at least $225 in support of the work of Highline Schools Foundation.
Again today, we ask that you consider a gift to support Highline Schools Foundation. The needs of Highline Public Schools are larger than ever and our students, teachers, and staff need the Foundation to step and help. Your donation will go to supporting Highline Public School’s most vulnerable students’ and families’ greatest needs, during the crisis of today, and all year long.
 
For a limited time, all gifts $225 or more will be matched at 100%!

We will continue to match all gifts $500+ through the end of our campaign, but our matching pool has grown to over $45,000! Thanks to an anonymous donor, all gifts $225 or more will be matched now through Monday April 20th at 6pm.
The Gold Star Campaign will continue through Thursday, April 30th. To learn more about the campaign visit the campaign website: http://www.highlineschoolsfoundation.org/be-our-gold-star/
