Future Teachers of America Conference
Dance Marathon Fundraising
IT’S ALMOST TIME FOR DANCE MARATHON! We are so excited and are really gearing up for February 24th! This email is a reminder to please, please, please be sharing your fundraising pages! We have a lot of people signed up that haven’t yet shared their pages, meaning that they also haven’t fundraised. Like we said at the meeting, no matter how much or how little you raise, you are able to both participate and receive service hours. BUT the entire point of this event is to raise money to support two great local organizations that aid children and their families in the High Country. Again, please make sure you start sharing your pages! We want to help out our community as much as we can.
If you need help registering or have any questions please feel free to reach out to us! (washcosg@appstate.edu)
