Description

Dear Valued Friend,

The Franklin Elementary School PTO is holding our 21st  annual Auction/Raffle on March 19th, 2016.  The proceeds of this event benefit Franklin kids in many ways: Before and After school programs, informative assemblies, library books, special school equipment, new technology and best of all class trips. Many of the programs are 100% funded by the PTO because they are not covered by the district. As we are sure you agree, our children are our greatest asset and they deserve our very best effort in providing every opportunity for them to grow and learn.

At this time we are asking local businesses for donations for our Auction/Raffle.  Your contribution will be greatly appreciated, whether it is merchandise, a gift certificate or cash.  All donations are tax deductible and our tax exempt number is 270-680-077/000.   Last year the Auction/Raffle was a great success with over three hundred contributors throughout this area.  If you have contributed previously, you know how far reaching it is. In an effort to show our gratitude, we recognize each donation in our program and urge all who attend to patronize the businesses that contributed to the event.   The event usually hosts about 400 attendees and we sold out our tickets within 10 days!

If you would like, you may contact me to answer any questions you may have and/or arrange for any pick-ups.  We thank you in advance for your participation and cooperation, and your generous support of our school and it‘s children.
