Introducing the
FORMALLY EVER AFTER Formal Ticket Fund Project 🧡
What is it ?
It's a little extra way we can support some year 12 students to attend their formals
I realised that even if we can gift our students a formal outfit there are still some students who simply can't pay for their formal tickets
Did you know a formal ticket can range between $110 and $200 on average but I've had students with even higher tickets
This alone can make it impossible for some students to even consider coming to me for an outfit
Many supporters over the years have asked to donate cash to me and I always say no . But this Fund can mean people can donate directly to a school account we've organised to go to help a student in need of a little extra support
I've approached 3 local schools and been chatting about the difference I feel our Formally Ever After village can make to some students
Students who don't have any other funding available , who sit in the classroom and just say 'nah I don't wanna go '
They do want to ..they just know it's not doable
How do you ask your parents for money for a formal ticket when you watch your parents cry over how to afford food and rent
So I thought why not try this and see how we go , we have a huge village here 🧡
Our trial will be with the 3 High schools listed below to start and we can add more as we see how it goes
1. Mabel Park State High School
2. Kingston State College
3. Woodridge State High School
If you are keen to donate any amount of money , it can be $5 , it can be $100 .... please send me a message , tell me which school/ schools and I'll give you the information you need to help us make some young adults dreams come true 🧡
The youths we help will be decided on by selected members of each school
, carefully considered
At the end of the year we will be told how many students we've helped from each individual school
Sound like something you'd like to be a part of ?
I am donating some of my own money to each school plus some money from the Greenbank Services Club Grant we recieved earlier this year
Message me if you want more details and / or for the individual schools bank account details for this Formally Ever After formal ticket Fund 🧡🧡🧡
Feel free to share the post as the more we share the more we'll help 🧡
P.s
If there are any schools reading this that would like to be a part of this please contact me and we can chat 🧡🧡
Also a big thank you to all our schools for the fundraising they do to lower costs . Formals are huge events that do cost alot of money , venues , caterers , etc . It's great if we as a community can support our schools 🧡🧡
