It’s time to Square Up to raise money for security needs at our school! Our first Ivy fundraiser kicks off Monday, 10/14.
Here’s how it works: Every student needs to make at least five ASKS and/or EARNS to help their class fill up at least one chart of dollar amounts from $1-$100 (total $5050).
What’s an ASK? Scholars simply ask family and friends for a donation of any amount to ICA. It can be $1 or $100,000! There is no set amount. Every dollar counts. When the child asks for these donations, we hope they can talk about their school in a way that inspires the folks they are asking to give generously.
What’s an EARN? The scholars who love their school and want to play an active part in helping it complete jobs to earn money to give to the school. For example, a scholar can mow a yard for $25 and donate that money to Square Up. Or a scholar could feed the pet for a week to earn $2. Both would be equally celebrated.
There will be no individual competitions or prizes. Rather, each class that completes at least one Square Up chart will be rewarded with a special lunch and dessert with Dr. Withun.
The charts will be posted outside each classroom, and teachers will be sending updates on their class’s progress via their weekly newsletters. We need every class to complete one chart, and at least half of our classes to fill up two carts to hit our goal of $200,000. That money will be used to fund security needs at Ivy, and once those needs are met, any leftover funds will be designated for our playground.
