Annual Fund

Update: 105% raised so far – We Did It!!!

New for 2012, the Red Brick Annual Fund will bring your donations to bear on critical initiatives to improve our school.

This money will be used to fund the following:

• Red Brick Goes Green, such as: adding a Red Brick Green Garden, a rain barrel, and composting bin;
• Playground improvements, such as adding a red brick road for the children to “drive” around on;
• Contributing to our Financial Assistance Program;
• Updating an office computer and relevant software; and Important maintenance projects such as new gutters, concrete barriers, fence and other repairs.

We need your help to achieve our goals!
The Red Brick School Board has set a target contribution level of $100 per family. If every family contributes, this target funding level would allow us to raise $10,000 towards our annual target of $20,000. Of course, any contribution to the Annual Fund is welcome.

Recognition & Raffle for a Cape Cod Condo!

All of our contributors will be recognized in our newsletter and on our website. As an added incentive, each family who contributes at least $100 will be entered in a raffle to win a week-long stay in a Villa at New Seabury, MA on Cape Cod.
