Bolts of Blue Campaign The Final Countdown The final countdown week is here! We have just five days left to meet our fundraising goal as our Bolts of Blue Campaign ends on Friday, October 11, 2019. We are beyond excited at how close we are to our $130,000 goal. We are sincerely thankful to our Lutz Preparatory community for your amazingly generous donations to our campaign so far.
We are thrilled to report that as of today we have raised $113,092! None of this would be possible without your support. THANK YOU!
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 1st, 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 Us Meet Our Fundraising Goal?
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.
Friends and Family Sample Letter for Donations
We have had a few parents ask for a sample letter to help their child(ren) spread the word to friends and family regarding the campaign. Click HERE for a sample letter.
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.
