Discount Card Sales

Fundraiser update!

Hello FAAM Parents and Families,

We’re in the final two-week push of our school’s discount card fundraiser, and we need your help to reach our goal of $60,000! So far, we’ve raised $23,000, which is amazing, but we know we can do even more with your support.

Hello FAAM Parents and Families,

We’re in the final two-week push of our school’s discount card fundraiser, and we need your help to reach our goal of $60,000! So far, we’ve raised $23,000, which is amazing, but we know we can do even more with your support.

Here are some fun and easy ways to help increase sales before the fundraiser ends:

Target Out-of-Town Donations

Even if family members live out of town, they can still help! They can donate any amount to support the school, even if they won’t use the card. Every bit counts!

Sales Blitz

Let’s make it happen in one night! Join other families for a Sales Blitz by meeting up and selling cards door-to-door in your neighborhood. Groups of kids can sell together while an adult volunteer follows in a car for safety. It’s a quick and exciting way to make a big impact!

Parent Business Sponsorships

Do you or a family member own a business? Consider selling cards to customers or displaying them at your workplace. It’s a great way to involve the community while supporting the school.

Social Media Shoutouts

Parents, share why this fundraiser is important to your family on Facebook or Instagram. Tag local businesses that are included on the card and use apps like Venmo to make buying easy. The more we share, the more support we’ll get!

Family Packs

Encourage kids to ask relatives to buy more than one card to give as gifts. It’s an easy way to multiply sales and spread the word.

Holiday Gifts

With the holidays coming up, suggest the cards as holiday gifts for those who love shopping locally.


We know life gets busy, and not everyone has been able to participate yet. But now is the time to jump in and help us make a final push. Every card sold gets us closer to reaching our goal and supporting our school!

Thank you for all you do – we couldn’t do this without you!

Let’s finish strong!

8 SEPTEMBER 2024 The school year is off to a great start, and we are so impressed at the sales of our discount cards already! If you're not new at FAAM, you know that our big fundraiser has traditionally been Boosterthon, which raised $50,000 for our school last year. The downside is that we actually raised over $80,000, but Boosterthon took a huge cut. The discount cards enable us to keep 100% of the profits to go directly toward our school. We are striving for every child to sell 5 cards,...
