Let's keep going! Help us hit our $25,000 milestone for our first school-wide incentive, a SURPRISE GIFT for all students at Movie Night on September 22!

Pledge Drive – Jerabek Elementary Family Faculty Organization (jerabekffo.org)
A growing part of our annual fundraising is Corporate Matching, when your donation can be DOUBLED or TRIPLED by your employer! Here's what you need to do:
- Contact your HR department to learn more about their non-profit matching program. (FFO Tax ID# 20-8116743)
- Funds should be payable to "Jerabek FFO", including parent/guardian's name for acknowledgement purposes.
- Every parent/guardian can request company matches. That means MULTIPLE MATCHES from one family is possible and highly recommended!
- Tax deductible receipts (sometimes required for corporate matching requests) will be sent within two to three weeks of your received donation.
- Email pledgedrive@jerabekffo.org with any questions.
CORPORATE MATCHES COUNT TOWARDS OUR GRAND TOTAL *AND* YOUR CHILD'S CLASSROOM TOTAL TO HELP REACH INCENTIVES!
