Thanks to the Santa Cruz Sentinel for their coverage of everyone’s efforts to bridge the funding gap for our local schools. There is lots of great information on SVEF’s part in raising money to make a difference. Read the entire article here.

Round Table Pizza of Scotts Valley is raising funds for our schools along with serving up some fantastic food.

Round Table will donate 15% of an order’s revenue to Scotts Valley Educational Foundation when you mention this SVEF promotion during the month of September. This offer goes to September 30, 2010 and is for the purchase of non-promotional menu items with no coupons or discounts being used.

Come bring your friends, family and acquaintances to the 5th Annual Oktoberfest. There will be free children’s activities that include face painting, bounce houses, games, and more. Come see the Internationals live on stage here from Germany. Admission is $10.00 except for Veterans, Police, Fire Fighters and Children who are free. Come support your local community.

Email us at info@svef.net if you would like a ticket, we will get it to you. All our tickets sales go 100% to SVEF. Click here to see Oktoberfest2010

As of today we have raised $30k since May, towards our goal.

Stay tuned for a letter that will inform our families what kind of items will need to be cut next year if we don’t come up with our district’s goal of $950,000. It is really important to all work together to help raise funds and awareness of our current situation. Hopefully we can get a parcel tax, increase Dollar a Day fundraising and work on other alternative cost saving measures now, to avoid cuts later in the school year. Watch for an informative letter the first week of school.

This fall we would like to Welcome Allison Niday as our new SVEF President, along with Mary Dettle, our new Vice President.

We still have some director positions available, please feel free to join us to see if you would like to become a part of our organization.

We will have our monthly meeting on Thursday at 7pm held at SVHS conference room.

Next Meeting -September 16th

Elite Martial Arts Academy is putting on a school supplies donation drive. At the front of their academy they have 5 bins with the different school’s names on them from the Valley. please donate pens, paper, glue, etc into them. The academy students who raise the most supplies for their school win a free pizza party for them and their friends to congratulate them on their generosity. Elite will then donate all the supplies on August 28 to each school. Contact with more questions 831-438-KICK (5425)

Elite continues to support SVEF with donations. Thank you Elliot and Elite Martial Arts Academy!

Read about our Community Day program and other ways that SVEF works to help our local schools in this Santa Cruz Sentinel article.

We have raised $25,300 for Dollar a Day. Thank you to all of you who have contributed, we are a step forward in helping our schools. Those of you who haven’t had a chance to contribute yet, you can send your tax deductible donation to SVEF, 245-M Mt. Hermon Road, Box 150, Scotts Valley, CA 95066.

Have you noticed the new banners outside of each of the schools? Check it out when you get a chance. We will be updating these as our donations increase.

We have reached $22,000. for our Dollar A Day campaign! Lets keep working at it. You will soon see banners posted at each of the schools to show the progress through out the year of where we are on our fundraising goals. We are showing the goal of $950,000 for SVUSD, for the school year 20011_12. Hopefully that will be raised in many ways, not only through SVEF but we still will show the full goal for the district overall.

Tell your friends and neighbors to contribute, if they can. Next year it will only get harder to make cuts to a budget that is already way too low. Help where you can. You can go to our “Help Us” page to donate through PayPal, or send in a check to SVEF, 245-M Mt. Hermon Road, Box 150, Scotts Valley, CA 95066

Thank you to all of SVEF supporters!
