Description

Greetings! I am a proud parent of a preschooler at Hobson School in Naperville, IL and I’m writing to you in hopes that you will support our annual Spring Social fundraiser, which will be held in April 2024.  Your kind contribution will help to ensure the future of our long-standing educational program that has proudly served the Naperville community for the past 54 years. 


We are currently soliciting donations from local and national businesses for raffle prizes and silent and live auction items.  Can we count on your support by donating tickets or a gift card?  


The proceeds from donations will be used for the benefit of Hobson School and the unique programs we offer preschool-age children.  As a not-for-profit school, our annual Spring Social is our most important fundraising event.  Tuition covers only a portion of our annual expenses, and Hobson relies on the generosity of area businesses to fill the gap. If you believe that you could support Hobson School this year, we would love to promote your business.  


In return for your involvement, Hobson School will ensure visibility in the following ways:

School website donor listing until the date of the event
Business/Organization name visibility to approximately 200+ Naperville-area Spring Social attendees
Spring Social program listing
Mention on our Facebook event page

Hobson School continues to be a unique educational experience in which parents have the opportunity to participate in the classroom along with Hobson’s experienced teachers.  And, because of our parents and staff working with each other, the children receive what Hobson has always offered – an outstanding preschool experience.  Hobson is a preschool AND a community for families.  In 2012, we were honored to be the Readers’ Choice for “Best Preschool in Naperville” by the online newsletter, Naperville Patch.  Most recently in June 2016, Hobson School successfully purchased the building and grounds from District 203.


Our goal is to partner with you to promote your business/organization to our local membership, their families, and our numerous alumni (a network of thousands of local families) while supporting the future of our cherished school. Your compassion enriches the lives of our children in more ways than you’ll ever know.  We are so grateful for your consideration and support and look forward to working with you.
