🩵 THANK YOU, SHAW ROAD COMMUNITY! 🩵
Mission: Playground may have crossed the finish line, but what our Trailblazers accomplished over the past few weeks is something truly special.
While we didn’t quite reach our Phase 1 fundraising goal, we are incredibly proud of what we achieved together:
💥 Nearly $22,000 raised (including corporate matching donations!)
🌎 Donations from 35 states and 4 countries
🏫 Every single class brought in donations
🚀 Nearly 60% of our students registered
More importantly, we saw what makes Shaw Road such an amazing community. Families, students, staff, grandparents, friends, neighbors, and supporters from across the country—and around the world—came together to invest in the future of our school.
Every donation, every share, every registration, and every encouraging word brought us one step closer to creating safer, more inclusive playground spaces for all Trailblazers.
🎤 And because of your incredible support, we unlocked RECESS KARAOKE WITH MR. MICHELES! Stay tuned for details on next week’s recess celebration!
⏰ Missed your chance to donate? Good news! Donations remain open through June 6, and ALL individual and schoolwide prizes still apply. .com
While this fundraiser was an important step, it is only the beginning of a much larger journey. The support we’ve received has shown us that this community believes in this project and in the students who will benefit from it for years to come.
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for helping us launch Mission: Playground.
❤️ Together, we are building something amazing.
