Not pizza 🍕, but just as good!

Hello everyone,

We are kicking off a unique and VERY simple fundraiser for the Cienega Instrumental Music Program. Our goal is to make this the ONLY CIMP fundraiser of the year, but in order to do that we need full participation. The money raised helps support many programs throughout the year, including the end of the year banquet and awards for all students, equipment, food and much more.

We are doing an ALL digital “pick the date” calendar fundraiser. The basic idea is that friends/family click on the date(s) that corresponds with the amount they wish to donate.  They click on that date(s) and are directed to the payment screen.  Once they donate, their name populates the date, and it is no longer available.  Please encourage friends and family to select multiple dates or even a full week.  Each member has been assigned their own calendar.

Attached to this email is a copy of the Participation Prep Sheet your student should have brought home on Friday 7/31/26 from class. There is also a copy of the below instructions, Calendar Participation Onboarding pdf, that includes visuals.

Please have your child(ren) bring their Participation Prep Sheet back to school on Tuesday August 4th with at least your phone number filled in. The more phone numbers of friends and family you can send the fundraiser to, the more success we will have in raising money for Cienega Instrumental Music. There will be prizes for all students who send out at least 20 text messages, and additional prizes for those who fill their calendar (especially the first in each ensemble), and raffle prizes, too! 

Thank you for your participation and your support!
