MV Schools Booster Club Spring fund drive
The time has come for the annual Booster Club Spring Fund Drive. This year’s event will take place on Monday, April 22, from 5:15 – 8:30 p.m..
On this night our student-athletes will be going out into our community to solicit membership/donations to the Booster Club. This event is always an exciting one for the Booster Club, as we get to see our student-athletes involve themselves in the process of supporting our programs. In just one night of hard work by our students we are able to raise over $7,000. They accomplish so much in a short night, but we need your help to make it work! Donations can be given directly to the student athletes the night of the fund drive or if they happen to miss you, donate online either through the website or via Venmo.
Website Donations (Select MV Booster Club as the Donation Type)
Venmo – Be sure to note MV Booster Club in the “What’s this for?” box.
Help is also needed the night of the fund drive. There are two shifts —the first shift will distribute needed materials to the kids, get them situated and sent out on their assignments.
The second shift will greet the students when they return, collect the funds gathered and then count the total. Each shift should only be an hour to 1 1⁄2 hours long and you’ll probably get some pizza for your troubles. If you have an hour to spare on that Monday night, please sign up at the link below! Thanks in advance for all of your help!
