Letter to the Alamo Community

Dear Alamo Families, Staff, and Community:

Alamo's 2010 Auction will be held on April 9. We need your help in getting donations to make this event a success.

*** The funds raised pay for Alamo's PE, choral music, drama, ceramics, and dance programs. Without this fundraiser, we will not have these wonderful programs for Alamo's students.***

Here's how *YOU* can help:

Now through March 15th : DONATE OR ASK FOR DONATIONS

  • Do you own a business (or know someone who does)?
  • Do you shop/eat at a local business or restaurant and can ask for a donation?
  • Do you have a skill or talent that you could donate as a service?
  • Do you have an item that you could donate or tickets/gift cards that you aren't using?
  • Can you work with your child's class to make an art project?

Examples of past donations:
