FUND-A-PROJECT
Because of your generosity at the Auction this past Saturday, we have already raised $26,786 for our 2016 Fund-a-project. We are over halfway to reaching our goal of $50,000! This much needed cafeteria makeover will include new lighting, shades for the windows, sound proofing the room, sheetrock of the walls, new paint job on the walls, new fans, electrical wiring, spot lighting and artwork. Attached is an architectural rendering of the proposed changes.
If you were unable to attend the Auction, you still have the opportunity to be a part of this wonderful project. Please send in your donation to Beverly Watkins in the Business Office.
Thank you for all that you do for Saint Andrew Catholic School.
