For those families that aren\u2019t sure what this is or why we do it, here is a quick rundown.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What is GIVE week?<\/strong> GIVE week is how we maximize and simplify fundraising efforts for all of us &#8211; students, parents, and staff. Volunteer-intensive fundraising is time-consuming and needlessly complicated with little reward. Instead of asking students or parents to sell items to family, friends, and coworkers, we are asking each family to make a meaningful monetary donation to the PTO during GIVE week. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Why do we do it? <\/strong>100% of the money raised will stay at the school and support all the events, clubs, and classroom grants we provide throughout the year.&nbsp;Here\u2019s what we need from you. In order to support our programs, we need to raise at least $35,000. Simply put, a donation of $50 per student enrolled at Galileo would get us to that goal. <em>If we meet our goal, this will be our only fundraiser for the year. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please donate <a href=\"https:\/\/www.paypal.com\/donate?hosted_button_id=LGYPPZ64FZNU6\">here<\/a> and help us reach our goal.&nbsp; If you have any other family members or friends who would like to support the school, feel free to forward them the link. Finally, many businesses will match employees\u2019 donations, so please check with your employer. Thank you so much!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stay tuned to our website for more details about GIVE week!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button is-style-fill\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\">Donate Here<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>September 30th &#8211; October 4th, 2024 Donate Here We are excited to announce that September&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_s2mail":"yes","footnotes":""},"categories":[24],"tags":[23,17,13],"class_list":["post-839","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-archive","tag-donation","tag-event","tag-give-week"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":"","thumbnail":"","medium":"","medium_large":"","large":"","1536x1536":"","2048x2048":"","covernews-slider-full":"","covernews-slider-center":"","covernews-featured":"","covernews-medium":"","covernews-medium-square":""},"author_info":{"display_name":"galileopto","author_link":"https:\/\/galileopto.com\/index.php\/author\/galileostempto\/"},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/galileopto.com\/index.php\/category\/general\/archive\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Archive<\/a>","tag_info":"Archive","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/galileopto.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/839"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/galileopto.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/galileopto.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/galileopto.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/galileopto.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=839"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/galileopto.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/839\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":850,"href":"https:\/\/galileopto.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/839\/revisions\/850"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/galileopto.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=839"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/galileopto.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=839"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/galileopto.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=839"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
