🚨 WE DID IT! 🎉 We hit our $45,000 goal!

We are incredibly grateful for the amazing outpouring of support, especially the flurry of donations that came in overnight. THANK YOU, Jaguar families! This truly was a community effort, and we couldn’t have reached this milestone without you! 💙🐾

And there’s more to celebrate — Popsicle Parties are officially unlocked for EVERY class!

Fregoso and Baker are each just ONE participating family away from being entered into the Boba & Movie drawing. Let’s keep the momentum going and get every class across the finish line!

IT’S THE EVE OF THE LAST DAY! 🎉
And yes, I promise — I, too, am looking forward to talking about something other than the Donation Drive. 😂 But we are so ridiculously close that I have to give you one more update (ok probably one more after this)!
💙 $44,680 raised — 99% of our $45,000 goal!
That means we are just $320 AWAY!

🍧 16 classes have officially reached 60% participation!
And we still have two classes right on the edge:
Fregoso — 1 more family!
Baker — 2 more families!

Burns currently leads PTA Memberships, while Easley leads Total Dollars Raised — but there’s still one full day for things to move.

Tomorrow is the LAST DAY. Donate, join the PTA, grab a Marquee Message, use that employer match — whatever gets us across that finish line!

We’ve made it this far, Jaguars. ONE DAY. LET’S FINISH THIS. 🐆💙
