🎯 Our Goal: $33,000 (And a Foam Party!)

This year, our schoolwide fundraising goal is $33,000. If we meet our target, we get to celebrate in the coolest way possible: a FOAM MACHINE and FOAM PARTY at the final Yum Run event!

Community & Social Events including Movie Night, Family Dance, BINGO Night, Art Show, and the Picnic in the Park
Playground Equipment to keep our outdoor playtime fun and active! (exact items depend on total funds raised)
