Fundraising

Hello Le Monde Family,

I wanted to give everyone a heads up about what is going on behind the scenes at Le Monde, specifically within the fundraising committee. We have been working side by side with the PTO, School Board, and Le Monde Staff/teachers to come up with policies addressing where our money goes and how to raise more.  We know how important transparency is and this is a way for you all to see what is going on and how your donations are improving the quality of education our school provides.

 

Policies we are working on –

  1. Where your donations go and how needs are prioritized
  2. The relationships between Parents and Teachers and how your donations impact the classroom and future classes.
  3. Creating an inventory process to track what comes into the school so we know as a whole what we have and what is still needed.
  4. What it means when we give teachers funding and the ownership of supplies purchased.

 

Crowdfunding (DonorsChoose,etc)

  1. We will be training teachers on Donors Choose (and other similar programs) for classroom funding
  2. This year teachers will be paid a monetary bonus from Brown O’Haver based on the amount funded for their classroom.

The date is tentatively scheduled for May. We are still narrowing down the details, but keep an eye out for more information soon! If you have any ideas feel free to send them our way.
