This PreK-8 school has been a Raise Craze champion from the beginning. They easily adopted our program and made it their own, getting parents, faculty, and administration on board from the get-go. Holy Souls Catholic School made the switch to Raise Craze in 2018 after searching for an alternative to their annual fun run. Following much success in 2018, they decided to keep the kindness going in 2019 as well!
“In all honesty, I wouldn't have been surprised if we had a slight dip in fundraising from the previous year, but I was blown away to have such a great increase in both funds raised, Acts of Kindness completed, and most importantly the energy, excitement and participation levels were through the roof. So many kids, parents, and teachers were engaged this year,” stated their fundraiser’s organizer.
In addition to creating buzz and excitement around campus, the school completed some pretty amazing acts of service that they showcased at their Family Acts of Kindness event including:
Helping a sewing ministry sort and cut materials to make baby layettes
Making Thank You Cards for nurses, 1st responders, and priests
Decorating lunch bags for Meals on Wheels
Making Blessing Bags for the homeless
CHALKING THE WALK! Sharing inspirational quotes and messages on various sidewalks throughout the community
Because of their tremendous success, this school got the attention of other schools in the area who are now using Raise Craze as well. Talk about kindness being SUPER CONTAGIOUS! Thank you, Holy Souls, for doing such an amazing job paying it forward to others in your community and beyond!
