FUND-THE-NEED Fund-the-Need is a new and very special part of our Reach for the Stars Benefit. It gives members of the Kingsley community a chance to rally around a particular need at Kingsley and enrich the teaching and learning environment at our school. At this year's auction we are asking the Kingsley community to support the following needs: • • “Kingsley Is” Campaign – Our beautification and community identity program to enrich the halls, walls and grounds of Kingsley, making it an even more fun, welcoming and functional space for faculty and students. Specific plans and improvements will be shared at the event Kingsley Climbing Wall – With your help, we will be able to fund the balance of our commitment to purchase and install a 28-foot traverse climbing wall at Kingsley this Spring. • How does Fund-the-Need work? Each family will be given a paddle and bid number. During Fund-the-Need we will accept donations ranging from $500 to $25 for each of the two needs listed above. When each funding category is called, donors will raise their paddles for the category in which they wish to give. A volunteer will record the specified donation amount, and it will be reflected in the donor’s final bill at the end of the evening. All donations will be considered contributions and will be fully tax deductible. ! %&!
