<strong>2012</strong> STUDENT FUNDRAISER<br />

Dear Parents and Guardians,<br />

Last Friday <strong>Archbishop</strong> <strong>Riordan</strong> <strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong> launched its annual Student Fundraiser.<br />

Like last year's fundraiser it will take the form of a 5K Walkathon on campus,<br />

Wednesday, <strong>Oct</strong>ober 31st.<br />

Traditionally, the student fundraiser supports improvements to the school. This year,<br />

drawing on the theme to Educate in the Family Spirit, we have broadened our reach.<br />

Proceeds from the student fundraiser will primarily support the installation of a new turf<br />

field at ARHS, and a portion will support cancer research in honor of long-time ARHS<br />

employee Candy McDonald who passed away last spring.<br />

At last year's student fundraiser, $58,000 was raised for the school, and we are hoping<br />

to exceed that amount this year. Seventy percent of the student body participated, and<br />

this year our goal is 100%. We ask that at a minimum each student raise $200.<br />

This is a student-driven fundraiser, but we ask that you support your son in his<br />

outreach. Encourage him to approach family, friends, neighbors, local merchants,<br />

community members, etc. to sponsor his participation in the Walkathon. We think this is<br />

a good opportunity for our students to practice speaking about <strong>Riordan</strong> and why others<br />

should support them in their efforts. It's a skill they will have for life.
