Have you donated to the Chelsea Education Foundation (CEF) homecoming challenge?
CEF is a local, non-profit, tax-exempt organization that since 1990 has provided hundreds of thousands of dollars in scholarships to Chelsea High School graduates as well as grants to educators in the community with great ideas and programs.
In the past 12 months, CEF funded $29,000 in scholarships to 56 Chelsea High School graduates and gave $20,000 in grants to 27 programs that have impacted hundreds of students and community members.
CEF is hoping for contributions from both current student families and CHS alums, who have gone on to successful careers thanks to their great start in Chelsea.
The fundraiser runs through Oct. 10, Chelsea’s homecoming football game against Tecumseh, and this year’s theme is “Donate, Challenge, Win.”
You can donate online via Paypal and no PayPal account required. You can click here and go to the Homecoming challenge donation page here.
You can send in a check made out to the Chelsea Education Foundation to P.O. Box 281, Chelsea, MI. (Be sure to write your graduating class in the “memo” line of your check).
Or, you can donate Friday at the home football game.
Please challenge other classmates in your graduating class (past, present or future) via word of mouth, e-mail or social media to donate to the future of Chelsea education.
There will be weekly rankings for the most giving class, which will be posted on Facebook until Oct. 10 so you know where your graduating class stands.
The winning class will be announced the night of homecoming, and posted on the CEF website and Facebook page.
