Forest Acres Elementary is hosting its first ever BOOSTERTHON beginning on Monday May 13 and ending on Wednesday May 22.
Forest Acres is raising money to replace playground equipment that has been removed. The old equipment was not up to SC state codes and had to be removed, which left 700 children to play on 1 swingset and 1 climbing gym. The schools PTO raises money for the teachers and students all year long but this problem is bigger than the what the PTO can handle alone. We are asking the community to help reach our goal of $25000.
This fundraiser is not your typical sell and make money, this fundraiser gets the kids active and teaches morals and respect. The kids will get sponsored for each lap they walk or run. The laps consist of 1/10 th of a mile and the maximum number of laps is 35; so if you donate $5 per lap the most you could possilbly pay would be $175. All donations and sponsorships are tax deductable.
For more information, please call Forest Acres Elementary at 864-397-1800 or email us at forestacrespto@gmail.com
We would like to thank everyone in advance for any help or donations that you would like to give.
