This school year, the Academy’s Parent Board organized its Christmas Gift Card Fundraiser which allows Academy families to buy gift cards from favorite eateries and shops.
Depending on which gift card one buys, a certain percentage of the profits will go to needed capital improvements in the school such as gym renovations, an outdoor court or a playground.
The Gift Card fundraiser encourages families to buy gift cards for everyday purchases and it is also one way to get Christmas gifts for loved ones for their favorite eateries around the island.
The fundraiser currently has one more deadline on Nov. 1. For this deadline, gift cards are to be distributed on Dec. 6 and 7. According to Director of Special Events Rodney Chang, the Parent Board can extend the deadline to accommodate interested families.
