Our first school fundraising
We’re totally committed to the idea that baked goods can and should be nutritious real food. And we see our products helping kids develop a life-long preference for wholesome, natural eating rather than processed junk. Plus, as a former teacher and Vice Principal, Lark has seen first hand the critical difference that proper meals and snacks can make in empowering learning.
All this to say that school fundraising allows us to pursue all these goals and more while helping educators and communities. So this month we did our very first pilot fundraising program here in the Beach in Toronto, at St. Dennis School—a small community school with just over 200 students.
The kids brought home a flyer/order form, where parents were introduced to GRAINSTORM and able to order at a discount with 30% of sales going to the school. This single order form generated over $1400 in sales, which translates into over $400 for the school. It also translates into lots of healthy breakfasts and snacks to keep St. Denis kids energized and learning without junk snack blues. Great job St. Dennis parents!
We’re super excited about introducing our product to families all across the city like this. If you would like to see a GRAINSTORM fundraiser at your school, just drop us a note and we’ll take care of the rest.
