The Believe Kids Fundraiser packets went home with your child this week! There are a lot of nice items in the catalog that can be used as holiday gifts - or as a gift for yourself! Also a ton of wrapping paper to stock up for the holidays! A percentage of all sales goes to FTC, which will be given to the school for teacher requests, school parties and dances. This is the only fundraiser we are going to do before the holidays. A couple of things to note:
Orders are due Friday 10/13/2023
You can place your order via online at www.shopfund.com under "salt creek" for the school!
You are welcome to sell to family, friends, and neighbors! Even ordering a couple of items helps out!
