‘Back-to-School’ Night!
Next-Up … Back to WALKATHON
Walkathon takes many volunteer hours, and we're asking YOU to put in some of your time. Because every hour counts, and every hour gets us closer to our goal of raising at least $150,000! The second page of this newsletter suggests ways you can help right now and through the month of October! 
Walkathon Goal - Every Student: $
200
 
 
We suggest that every student set a goal of raising $200 to benefitBooksin. In addition, we recommend asking donors for a minimum flatpledge of $25. Of course, we invite you to raise more if you are able.
Let’s show our “POWER in NUMBERS” by raising the money we need to make Booksin the best school it can be! 
 
Corporate Matching: Your Boss Can Help!
Many companies provide a program where they match money donated(or time volunteered) by your family to Booksin.
Does yours? 
 Please check with your Human Resources department today to see ifyour company provides a corporate matching program that can enhanceyour participation. Identifying your company’s procedure in advance willmake our Walkathon even more successful.If company policy allows it, bring your student to your office Oct 11-22,and gather pledges from co-workers.
The boss can match them, too! 
 If you need any additional information from BESCA to facilitate acorporate match, please feel free to contact Holly Barr via email at
