GIVING TUESDAY IS NOVEMBER 30th!
Giving Tuesday is coming up and it’s the perfect time to help us reach our APS fundraising goals for the 2021-2022 school year. No gift is too small for our amazing APS staff and school. 💚
Please help us fund more Teacher Grants, Outdoor Learning Stations as well as our NEW initiative….a GYM refresh! Please remember the 501c3 so near and dear to all of our hearts! We have already accomplished so much this year, but have so much more that we want to do. Donate today at foundationforocps.org/apsfalconfund

Who: Events and Fundraising Committee
Where : Bikes Beans and Bordeaux
3022 Corine Drive
Orlando, FL 32803
When: Wednesday, December 1, after morning drop off
We are so excited to announce that we have just booked our location for our Spring Falcon Fling event!! We will be dancing the night away at the brand new Winter Park Library Event Center. It is absolutely beautiful and this year’s Mardi Gras theme is sure to be a night to remember.
None of this will be possible without your help. We are holding a meeting at Bikes Beans in Bordeaux on December 1 right after morning drop off. We understand that some of you work in the morning and may not be able to attend. We will make sure to keep you in the loop, and also plan additional meeting or zoom that would be more convenient for those were not able to make the December 1, morning meeting.
At this meeting will be discussing ways you can help. Some things needed are help with decorations, set up, planning, fundraising, donations, ticket sales, assistance with Handbid and help during the event.
We are looking forward to seeing you there!! Feel free to bring a friend or anyone else you may know that would like to help with this amazing event. Also please be on the lookout for donations for our silent auction. Some things we are looking for are vacation homes, event tickets, attraction tickets, theme park tickets, experiences, spa days, dermatology packages, summer camps, gift cards, jewelry, etc.
We are so grateful for you and can’t wait to get this party started! Looking forward to seeing you all!
Warmly,
Devin Qureshi (events), Molly Peadon (events) and Mickey Barkett (fundraising)
