Welcome to St. Patrick's 2nd Raise Craze Fundraiser Kindness Challenge! This is a unique way for us to raise money for our school while making a big impact in our families and our community.
During this fundraiser, students will ask friends and family for donations via the online Raise Craze platform while paying it forward by serving others by performing Acts of Kindness.
Acts of Kindness can include many things such as writing thank you cards to your local fire department, baking cookies for your neighbor, or even telling a friend what they mean to you! The possibilities are endless, and no act of kindness is too small, so get creative! What a great way for us to teach our students the importance of kindness and gratitude, especially during Lent.
Here is a quick 2 minute video you can watch as a family that describes what Raise Craze is and how your child can help make the world a better place one Act of Kindness at a time:

INCENTIVES - KINDNESS BINGO
As a little encouragement, we have (2) incentives that we're offering for students/families who participate! We're attaching a Raise Craze Bingo Card to this email (see image and pdf below). Please print one out for each participating child. As your child achieves a goal, help them mark it off on the Bingo card (ex: Log 3 Acts of Kindness, Raise $50, etc). When you've completed your Bingo card, email a picture of it to parentorg@stpatrickssi.org:
CLASSROOM CONTEST
Each day, as your children log their Acts of Kindness on their fundraising webpage, we will be tracking the classroom results. The Kindest Classroom of the Day will be announced by Mr. Sadowski each morning and that class will be presented with the school Kindness Trophy for that day!
If you are posting your Acts of Kindness on Facebook or Instagram, please tag St. Patrick School or @stpatsparentorg and use the hashtags: #spskindness2022 and #shamrockstrong
We are excited to see all of the ways our students choose to serve others!
