What is S.W.A.E.?

Shop With An Eagle

Etowah’s opportunity to serve our community by taking underprivileged children in our school zone shopping for Christmas presents.

Shop With An Eagle:• Etowah students and faculty will

hold several fundraising activities during the month of November

• Underprivileged children in the Etowah Innovation Zone will be invited to a breakfast/celebration with student mentors, who will then take them shopping

• For this program to be successful, we need EVERYONE’S help!


How much money????

• Our goal is to have approximately $100.00 per child

• The more money we raise, the more children we can help


What memories do you have of Christmas when you were little?

What if you didn’t have any presents under the tree?

What if all you wanted for Christmas was a warm coat or a blanket for your bed?


HOW CAN YOU HELP?

ONE WAY:

If every Etowah student gave up one snack or drink from the vending machines today, our school would raise $2200.00, allowing us to help 22 children in need this Christmas!!!!


Just think if we all did this one time a week! That’s all you have to do to make a difference a child’s life!


What are you willing to give up so a child can

have a wonderful holiday?

A coke?

A package of M&Ms?

A bag of chips?


Before youput that dollarinto the vending machine, pleaseconsider how that one dollar could help a child less fortunatethan you this winter.


The TAA Homeroom with the largest contribution will have a surprise waiting

for them next

week!!!
