Alumni Fundraiser - We Need All FFA Members to Participate
FFA Members & Parents,
The VHS Alumni raise money for the Vandegrift FFA students in the form of scholarships, show payouts/awards, and general items needed by the teachers and students. We aim to award $6000 worth of scholarships to graduating FFA student members every year. We can only do this with everyone's help in raising funds to support this amazing program and the kids who commit so much of their time and energy.
We have a super easy fundraising campaign starting this month. It is a fundraising app that only takes a few minutes of you and your student's time to create. Then the student just sends out emails to family and friends and can also link to Social Media profiles.
To make it more fun, we are offering a $100 gift card to the student that raises the most money and a $75 gift card to the student with the most donors.
Please see the link below for creating your account.
