• Fundraising ideas

Fundraising opportunities: 

Helping others in need, promotes the virtues of generosity, compassion, kindness and service. These virtues can be enacted in real ways with your class should you wish to get involved in helping to raise money for the schools in Vellore. The Help-A-School Foundation has provided stationery, laptops and teaching resources for the classes involved in the project; however more funds are needed to enable other classes to also receive much needed resources, and the school to purchase equipment that would benefit all their students. 

The Help-A-School Foundation is working  with the principals at both schools to identify their resourcing and facility needs and to make considered plans for the targeting of improvements. It is therefore suggested that any monies raised through fundraising activities with your class be sent to the Help-A-School Foundation and not directly to the class. This will also ensure equitable distribution to all classes and students in the school. Classes can view project needs and donate their funds directly through the online Store or email jancarey@helpaschoolfoundation.com.
