How you can help

WHY DO WE NEED SPONSORSHIP?

In order to continue to provide the wide range of additional learning opportunities our students enjoy, the Victoria Avenue School Board and the Friends of VAS need to raise money every year to supplement what is provided by the government. This allows us to offer the best educational environment for our children.

Supporting our fundraising efforts will help the school raise necessary funds towards the main objectives that the School Board have set for the school for the year including:

• Ensuring we develop our educational programs and provide access to up-to-date learning facilities.

• Enabling building works to maintain the best possible learning spaces for our children.

The School Board offers a variety of opportunities for businesses and parents to support the school:

BENEFITS TO THE SPONSOR

• The opportunity to communicate to more than 400 families in our local area

• Opportunities to network with members of the school community at events

• Branding in digital & printed school communications

• Acknowledgement on all related occasions

• Our undertaking to work on any other innovative promotional opportunities that will mutually advantage both parties

Please note that school will issue a donation receipt for all cash grants which will allow individuals/businesses to claim a tax credit.
