Yankee Candle Fundraiser

10/23/2018

 

Monday, October 22nd - Friday, November 2nd
All Bands

The Band Program is having a Yankee Candle fundraiser from now through Friday, Nov. 2nd. If you would like to buy a candle, or another item in the catalog, you can either order from a band student or purchase directly online. Front office staff also has catalogs and order forms.

Fun Facts:
* 40% of each item goes toward the band.
* Items ordered from students (not online) will arrive before Christmas Break and after Thanksgiving Break.
* In CCPS, the band program is almost entirely self-funded.
* With this money, we will purchase new music, accessories for instruments, music stands, and other items necessary to keep the band playing!
* Please include a 7% sales tax with all orders.
* This is the bands only "stuff we sell" fundraiser all year. A large majority of our funding comes from other community partners (like FAME)
* Candles make GREAT stocking stuffer's and gifts!
