Dear ESS Family and Friends,

We extend our heartfelt gratitude for taking part in our fundraiser. Our annual Walkathon is our
school’s most significant fundraising initiative and your involvement holds immense importance
for us.

Our target donation per family is $500.00. We deeply value your support as your contributions
will make a substantial difference in several key areas:

● Expanding in-school programs and workshops for the benefit of our students

● Supporting our fund dedicated to the essential seismic upgrade of the school

● Strengthening ESS’s connection with the community through outreach efforts

Every dollar donated will directly contribute to enriching the educational journey of all our
students. Your generosity is truly appreciated!
