🍫 World’s Finest Chocolate Fundraiser Is Here! 🍫

We kicked off our World’s Finest Chocolate fundraiser today! Mr. Hunter shared with students how this fundraiser supports Wacona and explained the exciting prizes they can earn by selling chocolate. Order/permission forms are going home today!

🔔 PLEASE NOTE: There are a few important changes to our fundraiser this year!

🍫 Chocolate is now $2 per bar.
Each case contains 40 chocolate bars, for a total value of $80 per case.

📝 Permission Slip = Commitment to $80
By signing and returning the permission slip, you are agreeing to sell one full case of chocolate ($80) and turn in the money by the deadline. Chocolate cannot be returned, so please make sure your family understands this commitment before returning the form.

🍦 BONUS GIVEAWAY!
Students who return their signed permission slip on Wednesday, September 2 will receive a coupon for a FREE ice cream! 🎉

💵 ALL MONEY DUE: Wednesday, September 23
To qualify for fundraiser prizes and participate in school field trips, all chocolate sale money must be turned in by September 23.

Please review these changes carefully before signing and returning the permission slip.

❤️ Thank you for supporting Wacona! Every case sold helps our school, and we truly appreciate the support of our students, families, and community!
