The campaign has been extended to Friday, October 11th, 2019 for all incentives and homeroom participation.
Dear Lutz Preparatory Families,
We have extended our Bolts of Blue Campaign to Friday, October 11th, 2019. Our campaign is going strong as we enter our last two and a half weeks until the deadline.
We are thrilled to report that our community of supporters has donated $89,450.45 as of yesterday afternoon! We are determined to meet and hopefully even exceed our fundraising goal of $130,000. Please consider making a contribution and share our campaign information on to as many people/businesses as you can and help us get the rest of the way there.
Please read below to learn all about the great things happening during our campaign: Spirit Dress Days, Family Spirit Nights at local businesses, Human Administrative Car Wash, Silent Auction, Parent Night Out, and Student Lock In.
Homeroom Classes Who Met the $1800 and/or 100% Participation Goal
Several of our classrooms who have not met the goal are within a few hundred dollars of reaching $1800 or are just a few students short of meeting 100% participation (minimum donation to be considered for HR participation is $50) by each student.
Additional congratulations to our 4th and 5th grade teams as all homerooms in those grades have met the 100% participation and/or $1800 goal.Let's keep the ball rolling and have every grade meet their goals.
All homerooms who reach their goals will receive classroom prizes fun dress days.

How Can You Help to Meet Our Fundraising Goal?
There are two full weeks left in our Bolts of Blue Campaign. If we look to our community and extended Lutz Preparatory supporters by spreading the word to businesses that support education we can without a doubt exceed our campaign goal! Please consider the following examples of additional ways to support Lutz Preparatory.
Share on Facebook and Other Social Meeting to Your Friends, Family, and Community

Friends and Family Sample Letter for Donations

Check with Your Employer to See if they Match Donations
Many of our parents' employers will match dollar-for-dollar donations to non-profit organizations like Lutz Prep. Check with your HR department to see if they offer this benefit. We also encourage our families to reach out to local businesses in your community for sponsorships in addition to potential employer matching benefits. Thank you to those families who have pursued this company matching option and DOUBLED their donation to support our school!
