FUNDRAISING UPDATE

2007-08

This fall has been very busy at Oneida.  Our first fundraising project this fall was our "Sunsweet Fundraiser.  The orders just arrived on Friday, Nov. 30th and distributed on Monday, Dec. 3rd.  In November, we offered our Poinsettia fundraiser once again to our Oneida families. Orders were delivered and picked up on Dec. 5th.

With the December newsletter, went home a gift card from Body Matters which will allow 5% of each purchase to be donated back to Oneida Central School.  We are still awaiting to hear from Body Matters as to funds raised.

Spring Flower Fundraiser - Pickup for the hanging baskets will be on Thursday, May  8th from 3:15 - 5:00 p.m. in the gym and pickup for the bedding plants will be on Thursday, May 15th from 3:15 - 5:00 p.m. in the gym.  Thank you again for all of your support for the students at Oneida!
