How do we fundraise during a pandemic?...

Facebook fundraisers

Over the past couple of years, several of our Band Booster parents have raised significant funds for McKinley CLA Bands by holding Facebook Fundraisers on their birthdays.  Feel free to ask a board member if you would like more information about how to do this.

We also now have a donate button on our Facebook page!  At some point during the school year, you might consider sharing one of our FB posts and inviting your friends to make a donation to our band program.
