Fundraising at St. Charles
Fundraising is a fact of life in Catholic schools and a special way of building community. Families are asked to assume an active role in fundraisers. Our fundraisers include the Family Fun Day, Spring Gala, Campbell's and General Mills Box Tops for Education promotions. We continue to look for fundraising activities that are not a burden to our families and students.
Highlighted on this page are our major fund-raisers.
Throughout the course of the year other projects may be
undertaken by the school as a whole or by individual
classes to meet specific needs. Your support is always
greatly appreciated.
The Family Fun Day has two goals: to raise funds for the
PTO budget and to host an event that can be enjoyed by
the entire family, especially the children.
The variety of arts and crafts booths, children's
activities, food, and live stage entertainment attract
many people each year. The book sale, bake sale, and
Haunted House are also featured.
Spring Gala
Each
year the look may be a little bit different but the
purpose is always the same: to break out of the late
winter/early spring doldrums and have fun while
benefiting our school. This event includes both a Silent
and Live auction, games of chance, raffles, dinner and
dancing.

Campbell's Labels
Labels from a variety of Campbell's products add up to
provide brand new educational equipment for our school.
You may send them in with your children or drop them off
in the school office.
Box Tops for Education
General Mills and Betty Crocker boxtops with the label 'Boxtops
for Education' serve as a fund-raiser for our Media
Center and Computer Lab. Boxtops can be sent in with
your child or dropped off in the Media Center or school
office.
Book Fairs
Two Scholastic Book Fairs are held each year, one in
October and the second in April. Books are reasonably
priced and all proceeds benefit the Media Center.
