Katy Resident Raises Money To Help
Schools, Clubs And Organizations
For four years, Katy resident Dorothy Sanchez has worked to raise money
in the hopes of helping local schools, clubs and organizations thrive. This
year not only marked Sanchez’s fifteenth Scentsy fundraiser but her
most successful one yet. In December, Sanchez presented Kelsey Peltier
a check for $2,050.49 to go toward the Theatre Department at Poly Ryon
Middle School. Peltier, the school’s theatre teacher incorporated the
Scentsy fundraiser into an assignment for her theatre students who were
able to raise the money in just two weeks.
Mrs. Sanchez is a Scentsy Director who believes in one of Scentsy’s
values, “Give More Than You Take.” She donates part of her commissions
to build up the community. In her four years of holding fundraisers, she
has been able to donate more than $50,000.
