Mini-THON Corner
Nerf Night was a blast! The first fundraiser for Mini-THON raised over $500. We're off to a great start as East Hanover makes a big impact in the fight against childhood cancer! As a follow up to Nerf Night, Chosen Martial Arts Academy is offering to donate $10 to Four Diamonds for each student who begins their training with them during the months of November & December!
Other upcoming Mini-THON opportunities include:
(1) Start your holiday shopping with the Mini-THON Online Auction, which goes live on Black Friday and runs through Dec 1. We have amazing items donated from businesses across the region: sports tickets & collectibles; restaurants gift cards; practical gift vouchers; themed baskets; and a variety of tickets for fun family activities (spoiler alert --- Disney World passes!!) Check out the PTO Facebook page and next week's newsletter for the auction website link. You won't want to miss this!
(2) While at the Santa Shop on Dec 2, stop by the Mini-THON table and buy a Subway card stocking stuffer to benefit Mini-THON. Info will also be sent home for orders the first week of December.
