Dear Community Partner:
True to our name, Communities In Schools brings community, resources, and relationships inside
our schools to connect students to what they need to succeed - this spring, we will bring
the community to the basketball court for some friendly competition to support our mission!
On April 5, 2019, teams of volunteers from local companies, schools, and organizations will face off
for the grand prize - a chance to play against the Communities In Schools All-Star Team, made up
of our high school students! Our middle school and elementary school students will take the court
too, showing off their skills in various challenges.
We hope you will join us in making this community event one to remember through an
in-kind donation of a gift certificate, merchandise from your business, or an event/experience
that we can use in a raffle on event night. All proceeds from our raffle baskets will directly
support the students we serve in our community.
If youd like to participate as an in-kind donor, please complete the attached Raffle Donation Form.
We are happy to accept donations via mail to the address below or we can up pick up your item(s)
at a location that is convenient for you. Please call or email Kathy Heckman with questions or to
coordinate your donation at 484-834-8830 or heckmank@cislv.org. Thank you for considering our
request!
Our Ready, Set, Graduate! Basketball Challenge will take place on April 5, 2019 at Northampton
Community Colleges Spartan Center (3835 Green Pond Rd, Bethlehem, PA 18020) from
6:00pm-8:00pm. We invite you and your family to join us as guests as we bring a taste of local
