| The First Place for First Grade |
|
|
The Family Museum staff is pleased to announce the First Place for First Grade campaign to raise $30,000 to cover the cost of field trips to the Family Museum for all first grade students in the Quad City area. We cordially invite you to consider a gift in support of this initiative.
The Family Museum offers a valuable resource to teachers and students by carefully combining its unique style of hands-on learning with established first grade curriculum and learning outcomes.
How would your gift make a difference?
- Just $6.50 will safely bus and admit one child to the Family Museum
- $75 would cover the admission fee for a group of 25 first graders
- $175 handles the cost of a school bus for three hours
- $250 would sponsor an entire first grade class, admission plus transportation
Regardless of the amount, your gift to First Place for First Grade will help to ensure that the potential of young learners from across the Quad Cities is realized. You have the option of donating online or you can mail a donation to the Family Museum at 2900 Learning Campus Drive, Bettendorf, Iowa 52722. Please make checks out to the Family Museum Foundation. |
