Let's keep Appreciating our Staff!

A+ Foundation wants to make it possible for one to recognize and celebrate the extraordinary actions of a District #129 family member. Thank you for your continued support of the A+ Foundation for West Aurora Schools.
NEW THIS SCHOOL YEAR-MONTHLY DONOR RAFFLE
The A+ Foundation truly appreciates our donors who support The Foundation by purchasing COAs to recognize special members of the District #129 family. To show our appreciation to our donors, we are offering a MONTHLY DONOR RAFFLE. Each month, all donor names will be automatically entered into a raffle. One lucky donor whose name is drawn will receive a $20.00 Dunkin E-Gift Card! When there is more than one donor involved in giving a Certificate of Appreciation, the name of the donor making the purchase will be entered into the raffle. Winners will be notified by e-mail along with the E-Gift Card. The MONTHLY DONOR RAFFLE is The Foundation’s way of showing its appreciation to those supporting District #129. Thank you!
