The Foundation created this initiative to either partner with existing programs within the district or to help develop new programs that enhance the student experience. • For the past several years we have partnered with the high school's History Alive Program, which each year pairs groups of students with veterans who share their first-hand war experiences and the dramatic history behind it. • We developed branding/identity for the program and all of its various visual components • Created signage, banners and event print materials • Helped in the organization and staffing of the 5 separate days event FUNDRAISING
Over the years, we have explored numerous avenues to develop resources for our funding, and we continue to expand our outreach. • Mini-Auctions - held three times a year and accessed through our website. All the $28,362 proceeds made so far, went directly to Teacher Grants. • iDrive Event - we partner with Ford Motor Company for a one day event and have the opportunity to receive up to $6,000 in donations from Ford. To date, we have received revenue totaling $24,820, which went directly to Teacher Grants. • Thank-A-Teacher Program - allows individuals to donate a monetary gift in honor of a special teacher, which supports our Teacher Grant program Learn More • Spirit Brick Sales - personalized engraved tribute bricks are sold and then placed in the Lindbergh Spirit Garden located at Flyers Field.
