ANNUAL FUND
The Annual Fund (formerly known as Pledge Drive) is the first of three major fundraisers.
The Annual Fund is FOM's largest fundraiser of the year and typically accounts for 60% of total fundraising dollars collected yearly for Mayer. These dollars are critically important, as CPS' allotted funds only cover around 85% of what Mayer needs annually to provide the outstanding education that it is known for. Your support is vital to make up the remaining 15% of Mayer's operating budget.
FOM also raises money for Mayer throughout the year, including via local sponsorships, spirit wear, and social or charitable initiatives. Details to come regarding FOM's other two major fundraisers next spring: the Benefit/Gala, for parents to unwind and enjoy a night out, and the Walkathon, full of school spirit for all families.
We thank you for your generosity now, and always.
