OT: FGS School Fund Raiser.

For all of my friends, family, and business contacts, be they local or out of the area:

The school Erin is attending is having a fund raiser:

I really appreciate your willingness to help out here! I am a new FGS
parent and I think the educational opportunities this school can offer
Whatcom County girls are wonderful! Fairhaven Girls' School is an
opportunity not available in Whatcom County prior to this year!


This event is a critical part of our fundraising program for the
school and supports the school's scholarship commitment to an
economically diverse student community (30% of FGS students receive
financial aid to support attendance). Overall, FGS is not just another
private school; it truly is a school community.

Here is our goal: We need to sell 100 tickets by next Thursday! Or raise the same amount in donations!!! This will cover the cost of the event and still create a small fundraiser
for FGS!


Fairhaven Girls School is offering discounted ball tickets if
purchased by 12 noon on February 26. The prices are as follows:


$40 for a Family ticket (families of 5 or less)

$15 per Adult 18 - 64
$10 per child (age 6 - 17)
And a SENIOR SPECIAL of $12 per Senior 65 and over
Children under 5 years old are FREE with a paid adult admission.

Tickets are available online:
http://www.fairhavengirlsschool.org/masquerade.shtml


DONATIONS in lieu of purchasing tickets: In the event people would
like to make a monetary donation in lieu of attending the ball, for
every $10 donated they will be issued a raffle ticket for one of the
door prizes. FGS has been gifted many great items from local
businesses. Donations are tax-deductible and can be made online at:
http://www.fairhavengirlsschool.org/masquerade.shtml.


Note: Tickets are still available for purchase at the door on the day of the event at a increased cost.

Please Note: Donations can be made anytime and you can send a check to me directly (or I can pick one up if you are local) if this is how you would like to make a donation. Simply make the check out to Fairhaven Girls School, include the dollar amount being donated, and BONUS, it is tax deductible.

Please contact me via e-mail (abbottinc@aol.com) or phone (360)815-5054 to let me know how much you would like to donate. I want to post it to the "Success" area on the FGS parent group site and give you credit for your donations.


Thanks one and all, I really, really am grateful.
