Buckle up, this is a long one fam. Ya'll ready for some numbers?!? Let us start by saying; WOW. We are floored by the results of our families. We are humbled and so so appreciative. We encourage you to come to PTO meetings to help decide how it gets spent. Example: We'll be presenting new mascot glow up options, going over the branding bid, and going over sound equipment quotes at our next meeting Nov. 12th!
Lets get to it:
~Last year we raised $22,696.73. 107 students donated out of about 444. That's pretty incredible.
We have roughly 440 students, number of families unknown. BUT this year with PledgeStar we got to cast our net wider with visual purpose and get some helpful metrics.
This year, 111 FAMILIES registered through PledgeStar. 89 of those families donated. 189 students were registered; 155 though PledgeStar, 34 offline.
~169 emails only sent, 125 of them were opened by the recipient, 52 of those 125 clicked the link PledgeStar, 46 of those that clicked donated a total of $2,626.
~272 texts only sent, 145 clicked the link into PledgeStar, 81 of those donated a total of $4,440.

There are still 2 company donation matches and one online pledged check that we haven't received yet but included for our GRAND TOTAL of....🥁🥁🥁.....$29,669!!!!🥳🤩😍
