Budget and Fundraising at Steller<\/b><\/em><\/h1>\n

Welcome to our fourth post in the our series all about Steller Parent Group and the work we do. This week we are going to talk about our budget and fundraising. <\/span><\/p>\n

Fundraising is essential to Steller Parent Group\u2019s mission to enrich the lives of Steller students.<\/span><\/p>\n

Monies raised support school activities and are divided into four general  \u201cbuckets\u201d:<\/span><\/p>\n

1. SPG OPERATIONAL EXPENSES : <\/b>Eg. Website, FLASH, Insurance<\/p>\n

2. SPG HOSTED EVENTS & ACTIVITIES: <\/b>Eg. BBQ, Staff Appreciation, Community Events<\/span><\/p>\n

3. STELLER HOSTER EVENTS & ACTIVITIES: <\/b>Eg. Souper Steller, Sophomore Day and 50th Anniversary Celebrations in 2024<\/span><\/p>\n

4.GRANTS: <\/b>Eg. Travel Scholarships, Intensive Support, Program Support and Passage & Special Projects<\/span><\/p>\n

SPG will share the proposed budget for 2023\/2024 with the community for feedback and approval at the September 12th meeting – please join and share your thoughts. Voting will take place on line in the week following. <\/span><\/p>\n

FUNDRAISING<\/b><\/em><\/h1>\n

To reduce volunteer hours we will host one major fundraiser in 2023-2024. <\/span>Cups for Kids is a simple drive for donations, and will take place in the first week of October. <\/b><\/p>\n

Passive fundraising relationships with businesses has been an important part of our budget in the past.  With many businesses choosing not to renew these programs we are very pleased that <\/span>Fred Meyer is continuing with its Community Rewards program.<\/b><\/p>\n

Here is how the program works:<\/b><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Sign up to the Community Rewards program by linking your Rewards Card here. <\/span><\/a>Search for Steller Secondary or use code RJ417<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Then, every time you shop and use your Rewards Card you are helping Steller Parent Group earn a donation. <\/span><\/li>\n
  3. You still earn your Rewards Points, Fuel Points and Rebates as normal.<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. If you don\u2019t have a Rewards card they are available at any customer service desk, and through the till.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    In recent years we have earned about $600 a year from Fred Meyer, and about $400 through Amazon. We are hoping to be able to replace the loss of Amazon through an increase in participation in the Fred Meyer program. <\/span><\/p>\n

    We are always looking for ways to fundraise! If you have ideas, or would like to join our committee please reach out to our Fundraising Chair Monica Perez-Verdia at <\/span>fundraisingspg2@gmail.com<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

    And of course, you can always donate directly to SPG via our website<\/a>. Steller Parent Group is a registered non-profit 501(c)3 #06-1760342 and we can write receipts for donations. <\/p>\n

    Regards,<\/p>\n
