On behalf of the James L. Collins Catholic School Marketing Committee, we would like to reach out and ask you to partner with us on our annual Prize Calendar fundraiser. Over the last several years, our school has hosted our Prize Calendar fundraiser and it has been incredibly successful. Last year we raised over $30,000 for our students and we would love your support this year!
In January we are reaching out to businesses to solicit thirty fantastic prizes. In February and March, our students will sell prize calendars ($25 each) for a chance to win thirty prizes. Every calendar is in effect a raffle ticket. Then each day in the month of April, we will draw a number and that individual with the corresponding calendar number will win the prize for that day. For our fundraiser to be successful we are looking for overall sponsors of our calendar (similar to table sponsors from our previous galas), as well as daily prizes. We will use your name and/or logo on our marketing materials for our event, including social media and print.
We truly appreciate your assistance to help raise funds for our students. The funds raised will go to assist families by providing tuition assistance, address needs for advances in technology, and create opportunities for our students to become life-long learners engaged in addressing the problems of the future. Our school serves our diverse student body, who are from different ethnic, socioeconomic, and religious backgrounds. Serving students in preschool (ages three & four) through eighth grade, JLCCS offers a variety of opportunities to provide for a complete life experience and assist in developing leadership qualities.
Your business/organization can choose to be an overall sponsor through one of these levels:
- Diamond $2,000
- Gold $1,000
- Silver $500
- Bronze $250
We would be grateful if your organization could donate a prize for one of the days. Here are some of the previous prizes we have given away (to give you an idea of potential prizes your business could donate):
- 1 Year Family YMCA of Corsicana Membership
- An Rtic Cooler
- $50 Cash
- A family pass for five to the Dallas Arboretum
- A Michael Kors purse
- Three Lapis & Howlite necklaces from Tom Adams’ Collection of Lost Treasures
- A 65” big screen TV from Rent A Center
- $100 gift card to the Across the Street Bistro & Cafe
Please submit your sponsorship information by February 3, 2023 so we can get the calendars finalized! We truly rely on the generosity of our local businesses to continue to support our mission of preparing our students for future levels of education and for Christian leadership in the challenges of the twenty-first century. Our sponsorship packet is available online through this online newsletter.
