Annual Pledge Drive runs through September 30th
The Mariners Elementary School Foundation has kicked off the fall season with its annual pledge drive. Our school has been hit hard by budget cuts at both the state and district levels. The Foundation Pledge Drive supplements many critical programs that enhance our children’s’ education. Some of the programs we fund are:
* Science Program—Discovering Science * Technology * Teachers’ Aides * Accelerated Reading and Math programs * Music Program (Band and Choir) * Extended Day Kindergarten *
Last year, due to your support, we were able to fund a new sound system for the Penne Ferrell Theater, and recently purchased 40 Netbook laptops to be used by the fifth and sixth grade classes starting this school year. Every child in our school benefits from the Foundation’s Pledge Drive efforts. This year, our goal is 100% participation! Every contribution is greatly appreciated. No amount is too small. Give what you can. Please encourage your friends and family to join in also! Please show your school spirit and get your Pledge in early.
There are four easy ways to make your Pledge:
• Contribute online from this website
• Mail to P.O. Box 3158 Newport Beach, CA 92659.
• Drop off at the school front office.
• Copy this letter and pass it on to friends and family.
Please make checks payable to MESF (Mariners Elementary School Foundation). For more information, please contact Jaime Weber – Pledge Drive Chair, MESF Board Member and Parent at (949) 322-8074
