Fundraising is a crucial part of our program. On the extremely limited amount of funds that we receive from the state and the school district we are faced with a difficult choice, we either can limit the music education of our students or we can fundraise to provide the best possible music education experiences we can for our students.

STMAA provides several excellent fundraising opportunities. STMAA provides guidelines based on our annual budget that show how much each student's contribution to the overall cost of the program is. The funds that the students generate does not completely cover the entire cost of our yearly budget and that is why STMAA provides both fundraising for students and for our gener al fund.

There are several ways that you can support STMAA at this time:

We Care Coffee Fundraiser. On Tuesday, September 21st we launched our annual fundraiser through We Care Coffee. The proceeds from this fundraiser benefit e ach student's individual account to be used to pay each student's band fees and support our music program. The fundraiser is a pre-sale fundraiser. Each student has a packet with an order form, catalog,and informative flyer. I have attached sam ple letters to send via email to encourage online sales by people that you know, a sample of this years coffee label and the informational flyer. Orders are due October 7th.

You can support our general fund by attending our Monthly Dinner dine-outs . Simply go to our website at www.600building.com and download the flyers for our monthly dinner dine-outs.
