As a non-profit organization, fundraising is a necessity for our school. We strive to partner with companies and organizations that offer useful and quality products for our families, which in turn allows us to enhance the programs, activities, and tools that we offer our children.
During the course of the year, members are expected to raise a minimum of $150 in profits per student or $200 per family for those with more than one child in the school. Families have the choice not to fundraise and pay the $150 ($200 for multiple student families) at the time of registration.
You will receive updates periodically through the year to let you know your fundraising balance. Any/all fundraising amounts over the family minimum benefits the school directly, and is therefore greatly appreciated.
EXAMPLE: $100 Chicken order with a profit margin of 30% means your profit is $30.
Should you choose to withdraw from Stratford Cygnets Cooperative Preschool and have not yet fulfilled your fundraising obligation your final invoice will include a $15/$20 (Non-Base fee) for every month that your child(ren) was enrolled.
