Hello,

We are almost there! Three weeks ago the Ainsworth Foundation reported that it needed to raise an additional $57,000 by June 15 in order to keep our beloved art program. Through the hard work and generosity of our great school community, we have thus far raised close to $52,000 — thanks to everyone. The Foundation would especially like to thank the many children who have held bake sales and other fundraising activities, all of which have collectively raised over $1,000. If you haven’t had a chance to taste the yummy treats that the kids have been making, the fifth grade is holding a bake sale on the front yard Saturday June 4. Although the fifth graders will be in middle school next year, they enjoyed the art program so much that they want to make sure the younger children have the same experience. Please stop by and support these great students who love their school and love art.

The response to this campaign has been tremendous. Nearly 67% of the community has participated. We understand that not everyone can donate the same amount, but please donate what you can. No amount is too small, and to raise the last $5,000, we need 100% participation. Please remember, all funds raised by the Foundation for this campaign will go straight to saving art.

THANK YOU to everyone who has donated time or money to make our school stronger.
