​CHS Friends of Music has set up an online fundraiser with Double Good Popcorn to help students raise money for their student accounts. The fundraiser will go live next Tuesday, November 12th at 9am and run through Saturday, November 16th at 9am. Participation is optional, but 50% of all sales your student earns goes directly into their student accounts. These accounts - and the money in them - stay with your student as long as they are in the Music program and can be used for any trip the Music Department has, like Disney. We plan to do this fundraiser every year in order to help students earn money for Music Department trips!
 
Before the fundraiser begins next week:

1. Download the Double Good app [free]
2. Enter our event code QIHNBD in the app
3. Create your Pop-Up Store [takes about 1 minute to do]
4. Share your Pop-Up store with family, friends and neighbors via text, email, social media.
5. People anywhere across the US can order.
 
If you have any questions, please email Megan Benedict, FOM's fundraising chair, at [email protected]
 
Thank you!

If you or someone you know is looking to replace a bed, now is the time!  The Mattress Fundraiser hosted in our very own high school cafeteria will have 25+ different styles of beds on display for customers to try. We have partnered with Custom Fundraising Solutions who works with Mattress Warehouse to transform our cafeteria into a mattress showroom!

Don't forget, for every referral your student brings in, they earn $25 for the student account. This money can be used for a future music program trip. 

We are in need of parent volunteers for Saturday. Volunteers will be present to greet potential customers and thank them for their support of the Music Program at CHS. No sales involved. You will also serve as a liaison to the sales team for any questions they may have throughout the day. There may also be some downtime, so feel free to bring a book, work, etc. You can also bring a friend/partner/high schooler if you'd like some company during your shift.
