State Executive Council challenge local chapters!
|
It is not too late to accept the challenge from the State Executive Council to donate at least $25.00 in helping support Ohio FCCLA Endowment. All chapters that meet this challenge will be recognized at State Leadership Conference.
Funds from the Endowment provide scholarships, along with support for State Conference and regional events. Annual chapter support allows growth of the investment, garnering greater returns, which are then spent supporting Ohio FCCLA. In simple terms, the more money invested, the more money made in interest, and more dollars available to spend on Ohio FCCLA's students and chapters.
The Ohio FCCLA Endowment would like to thank the following chapters for their donations to the FCCLA Endowment fund so far this year:
- Bellevue High School
- Cory-Rawson High School
- Eastern High School
- Jackson Center
- Ohio Hi-Point Career Center Culinary/ECE
- Sidney High School
To donate, please go to http://www.ohiofcclaendowment.com/ and click on the link at the top of the page marked "Contribute" to download the School Donation Form.
