Our 18th annual Race for Education fall fundraiser is just three days away, rescheduled to Monday, November 2 due to rain. Thank you to all our donors who have helped us reach and exceed our goal of $30,000! You can still make a gift to the Race and help us reach our new Challenge Goal of $37,000. Donate online at this link — www.race4ed.com/acs — and share it with others.
We are very grateful for the enthusiastic response from hundreds of donors. To date, we have 39 Classroom Sponsors and 10 Event Sponsors: Atlantic City Electric, an Exelon Company; Berges Awning Inc.; The Boyle Real Estate Team; Chick-fil-A Fire Road; The Clark Family; Costello Roofing; The DiSciascio Family; Mia and Pa; Eleanor Pepper; and SERVPRO of Egg Harbor/Ventnor.
Our students have been excited to see poster cut-outs of close to 300 large green sneakers that are on display in a main school hallway and around classroom doors. Students have earned a sneaker for every gift of $50 or more that they have received from a sponsor.
We welcome our ACS families to come out and support our students as they Race around our 1/4-mile track for 30 minutes, racing at different times. Just make sure to practice COVID-19 safety precautions by wearing a mask and to social distance at all times. Parents are not allowed to run during the Race or stay with students during Harvest Day activities this year.
The success of our Race for Education relies on the number of sponsors and the amounts they give. Think of relatives, friends, neighbors, business associates, coaches, your doctor, and anyone else you know who would want to invest in your child’s education.
You can post the website link, www.race4ed.com/acs, on your Facebook page, on Instagram, on Twitter, and on other social media to inform your friends.
Thank you for supporting our school’s Race for Education fundraiser!
