Snap! Fundraising

Orchestra Parents,

Please take a moment to read about one of this year's most significant fundraising efforts.  Last year, we made $3,800 from this one fundraiser!

We will be kicking off our Snap! Raise campaign this week. Snap is an online donation campaign that allows our program to receive donations from our networks and supporters. Snap uses the power of email, text, and social media with a safe, fun, and interactive approach. All we ask is that each parent/guardian help their student gather 20 or more email addresses of their biggest fans. Please review the info below to see just how much of an impact this campaign can have for our students.

*Your contacts are strictly private and protected, and never sold or shared.*

Snap Fact Overview: 
1. Safe and Protected - Snap! Raise is the safest online donation campaign available. All data is private and never redistributed. Your student’s information on the Snap page is less detailed than what would be on a team website roster.
2. Online donation platform - Reach potential donors via email, social media, and text to ask them to support our program and visit the page, where they can seamlessly donate.
3. Email Strategy - All supporters will receive a receipt for their gift that is tax deductible, included with a personalized thank you from the student. There are three reminder emails sent to donors, with an option to unsubscribe. 
4. Network - Snap’s platform and process is what makes their campaigns so successful. It allows an extensive reach across communities by providing options to connect with multiple donors and their social networks, maximizing our raising efforts.  

Please consider helping your student with this fundraiser.  It doesn't get any easier than this for families to raise money for the Orchestra program.  Thank you in advance for your help!

Fundraising Booster meeting Tuesday

Bet you’ve spent all weekend cooking and entertaining, right? Relax and join the Orchestra Boosters for a fundraising brainstorming session tomorrow night (Tuesday 9/5) at 6:30 p.m. at Brothers Bar & Grill, 7407 Park Meadows Drive, Lone Tree.  It’ll be a fun time to get together and ponder what options we might want to explore for fundraising, as well as setting some goals, for Orchestra Boosters this year. 

Whether you’re giving some thought to helping as committee chair, want to be a regular helper, or just want to know what’s going to be happening this year, come meet up with us – especially if you have some great ideas to share!  We promise we’re all great people to get to know and hang around!

Please RSVP if you want to join us so we know how many seats to save!  We hope you’ll join us for this important planning session.  Thanks in advance for helping us make this a great year for our students!
