2011 Phone-a-thon Information for school Newsletters and other Publications
The 9 th annual Camas Education Foundation Phone-A-Thon will be held Tuesday-Wednesday-Thursday, March
1-2-3 from 6:30-8:30 pm at the new District Offices. Student and adult volunteers will call households in the
Camas School District to ask for financial support.
CEF has raised more than $163,000 in the events’ first eight years. This year we’re hoping to raise $25,000 and
are looking for corporate or individual donors to match pledges received over the phone.
Funds raised go to our schools for innovative curriculum enhancements in the areas of basic reading, math and
science, writing and literature, foreign languages, arts, social studies, history and more.
A few specific grants recently have been awarded to:
Academic Coaching for Learning Success - Elementary schools
Reality Care Babies – Liberty Middle school
Live performing arts, artists and authors in residence
The Jungle – Elementary schools
High School Challenge Day
Science Olympiad- elementary, middle, and high schools
High School Math/Science Magnet program
These programs would not be in existence without individual donations given through CEF.
Your volunteer phone caller will be prepared to tell you more about CEF and its support of our children’s
education in Camas. Please consider making a donation; every penny is appreciated.
We need volunteers to make this event a success. If you’d like to help, please contact Marybeth Johnson at
334-0726.
