Donations Needed
Grade Basket Donations: A favorite part of the Fun Fair Silent Auction is the Grade Baskets that are put
together by donations from our HC Storm families. This year we have decided to offer two baskets per grade.
How can you help make your child’s grade basket a success?
Please consider donating items for your child’s grade level baskets. Feel free to donate to another grade as
well! We will be taking donations from now until February 20th. Boxes will be placed by each grade level for
donations. Watch for more communication with more info and ideas. These baskets are always so much fun-don't miss out! If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Ted Kalomiris, grade level basket
coordinator at [email protected]
Snack Attack Game: This is one of the favorite games for the kids. It involves throwing a hula-hoop over items
set up on the floor, so we are in great need of individually wrapped snack packs and/or bottles of soda pop.
Please contact Jenny Culotta, snack attack and cake walk coordinator, at [email protected], if you
are able to help.
Cake Walk: Please consider a donation to our cake walk. Cupcakes, cakes, cookies- all will be appreciated!
Please contact Jenny Culotta, snack attack and cake walk coordinator, at [email protected], if you
are able to help.
Monetary: Don’t have time to shop for a donation or bake cupcakes but still want to help out…consider making
a monetary donation.
Volunteers: Don't just sit on the sidelines... jump in and be a part of the Fun Fair. Donate your time during one
shift that night... or two. Grab your junior high or high school student to join you and make it a family night. You
say you want to stay with your child during the fun fair…then donate some time to help set-up earlier that day
or helping out after the Fun Fair is over. This is a HUGE area of need, so please consider helping out! Please
watch for communication regarding how you can get involved! Please contact Erin Meitzler at
[email protected] if you are able to volunteer at Fun Fair.
Raffle/Silent Auction Items Needed
The financial success of this fundraiser depends largely on our Raffle and Silent Auction. Do you own a
business? Does a family member own a business? Does a friend own a business? We are currently looking
for donations, large and small for our silent auction and raffle. A donation in the form of gift certificates,
merchandise, memorabilia, free services, or tickets would make popular prizes in our Raffle and Silent Auction.
Also, cash sponsorships allow us to purchase large ticket items to be the grand prizes in our Raffle. Not only
will your donation help students and teachers, but it will help bring customers into that business on a regular
basis. Donations of over $75 in value will likely be included in our silent auction for increased visibility. Please
contact Barbara Bonnet, raffle and silent auction coordinator, at [email protected] if you are
interested in donating to this very important aspect of Fun Fair! Our organization is a non-profit organization,
and is recognized under Section 501 (c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Codes so your donation will be considered
fully tax-deductible. Please contact Erin Meitzler, Vice President- Fun Fair, for further information at
