We are excited to announce the 8th Annual Shop & Share School-Wide Service Project! This year’s event will be sponsored by 9United, a registered 501(c)3 and recognized partner of Forest Hills School District that seeks to provide service opportunities to FHSD students and families throughout the year. Shop & Share is just that: an opportunity for children to give of their time, talent and treasure in a meaningful way. Last year, Wilson, Summit, Ayer and Nagel students and families provided more than $65,000 in gifts and sustainability, making the holidays brighter for 29 Forest Hills families and more than 300 local families. This year, Maddux, Anderson & Turpin are joining our pursuit to double the number of families we will be able to assist this holiday season! There are many ways to get involved: 1. Share a donation in school! Get creative and brainstorm with your child ways to “raise” money for a donation (savings, birthday money, extra chores, etc.). Then, share how a student raised their donation by completing the form at the bottom of this flyer and returning it to school with the donation. Donations can be made by either cash or check (payable to 9United); there will be a designated “Shop & Share” bucket in classrooms. School collections end on Wednesday, Dec. 7. 2. Share online! Visit www.9United.org and click “Shop & Share 2016” to donate. 3. Adopt a family! Visit www.9United.org and click “Shop & Share 2016” to request a family to shop for on your own at your favorite store. Please make requests to adopt a family by Sunday, Dec. 4. 4. Shop! FHSD students and families are invited to join us at Target (Beechmont Avenue) to shop for families in need with the generous donations. It is an amazing evening of fun, holiday cheer, community and generosity! Mark your calendars to join the fun:
DATE: Wednesday, Dec. 7 TIME: 3 p.m.-7 p.m. LOCATION: Target (Beechmont Avenue) (Please note: all students must be accompanied by an adult.)
We cannot wait to brighten the holidays for so many in need! We live in an amazing community that is always so generous when given the opportunity to serve. Thank you in advance for helping make a difference! **This is not a school sponsored event. Participation in this event is not mandatory.**
