CSP ANNUAL FUNDRAISER for CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL OF COLORADO

Our homeschool community is invited to participate in the TCA K-12 fundraising effort to collect donations for the Children’s Hospital of Colorado, set to open in Colorado Springs in the Spring of 2019. The nearly 300,000 square foot facility will have 110 beds and will feature the only pediatric emergency department in the region. Children and their families across southern Colorado and neighboring states will have access to the expert pediatric care of a TOP 10 children’s hospital, close to home. With this new facility, Children’s Colorado team members can continue to care for every child regardless of their family’s ability to pay.Every single dollar counts!

This year each TCA school will host their own fundraiser & contribute all proceeds to this important cause. Our kids can certainly relate to this community outreach opportunity ( children helping other children). TCA’s K-12 organized service projects have raised almost $50,000 already!

Here’s how CSP students and families can participate:

Your child’s CSP class will have a decorated container to collect dedicated funds.

The class that collects the most money by our deadline (Jan. 25) will be awarded a pizza party.

The 2nd highest class donations will earn a casual day. 

DONATIONS ACCEPTED Nov. 26 – Jan. 25.

Cash or Checks (made out to Children’s Hospital)

Thank you for donating to this worthy cause.
