Washington Avenue School Asks for Your Support

Washington Avenue School playground fundraising

The Washington Avenue School parent community has pulled together to raise an amazing $64,000 towards a much needed new playground for our children.

We are not quite there yet. Our community of families has been so generous, we are now reaching out to local businesses to ask for their support. Businesses who donate $500-$999 will have their name on a PERMANENT sign at the playground as a "Friend", for donations $1,000-$4,999, businesses will be listed as a "Patron", and for donations over $5,000 businesses will be listed at the highest level on a sign as a “Benefactor”.

If you know of anyone willing to donate, please contact Tara Burke (tara.burke2120@yahoo.com) or Cara Haid (caracaralynn@aol.com), or donate through this link:http://www.was.cbo.io/. Recognition on the sign will be limited only to business and not open to any families in order to make it fair for the children, but all donations are appreciated. Thank you!
