Cash For Christmas Fundraiser Memo
Cash for Christmas Draw 2018
Date: November 15, 2018
From: Holy Trinity Elementary School Council
Re: Fall School Fundraiser
Dear Parent(s) / Guardian(s):
We invite you to participate in our Holy Trinity Elementary School fundraiser, Cash for Christmas Draw 2018. This will be a ticket sale with a total prize package of $6000 (1St Prize $3000; 2nd Prize $2000; & 3rd $1000). The goal is to raise monies to support the implementation of our School Development Plan particularly to maintain our technology, provide safe & caring school presentations / programs, and develop our outdoor play and work areas.
On November 19, 2018, we will be sending home 10 books of tickets (total 30 tickets) to each child. Each ticket should have only one seller’s name. More tickets are available upon request.
Given the young age of primary / elementary children, we suggest that they not go door–to–door to sell tickets. Rather, we recommend that students sell tickets through relatives and friends.
Tickets Sale Details
Winner’s Prize: 1St Prize: $3000, 2nd Prize $2000, & 3rd $1000.
Ticket Price: $2 each or 3 for $5.
Return Tickets: All monies, ticket stubs, and all unsold tickets must be returned to the school by December 3, 2018
Draw Date / Location: The draw will be on Dec 6, 2018 at the Holy Trinity Elementary School Christmas Concert.
Student Prizes: To recognize our student’s valuable contribution, all participating students will have the opportunity to win the following prizes:
- The seller of each winning ticket: Wins $100.
- Top selling class per grade level: Wins Class Activity Surprise Box (Value: $100 each).
- Early Bird Student Incentive Prize for Students returning any sold ticket(s) by November 29, 2018.

Important Halloween Reminders
A few friendly reminders for our upcoming Halloween class party during the PM SESSION ONLY (i.e., after lunch) of Wednesday., October 31.
- Costumes for all HTE students are to be worn after lunch.
- With such severe allergies in our school, NO HOMEMADE treats can be brought in for classes as a “group set” of treats.
- If you wish to send in “group treats” it MUST be clearly labeled as “peanut free”, or, a non-food item. (for eg, Halloween pencils, stickers, etc)
- Students may bring their own small snack for the afternoon session (i.e., treat & drink).
School Wide HTE Halloween Reminders!
- Please refrain from using scented/colored hairsprays due to both staff & student allergies.
- Please refrain from wearing FULL FACIAL masks (i.e., that would cover child’s entire face) due to some younger children’s feelings and our school latex allergies.
- Please do not bring ANY type of toy weapons (i.e., guns, knives, swords, etc).
- Make up is ONLY to be worn if a parent/guardian picks up a child for lunch & takes them home to put on the make-up. Due to our large student population, students cannot be going into the washroom during lunch hour to administer make-up. In addition, teachers on lunch duty are solely responsible for student safety and will not be able to assist with children’s make- up. Save the make-up for your fun trick-or-treating night!
Thank you, HTE Staff
