The Githens Yearbook Club is hard at work capturing photos at school events and meeting weekly to design/layout the yearbook. This is the first time Githens has had a yearbook in 10 years!  The PTA is sponsoring a FREE yearbook for every scholar and has already committed $5,000 of PTA funds for this year's yearbook. 

We need to raise an additional $3,728 to meet our goal!  

We need YOUR HELP to ensure we can sponsor a book for every scholar. Two Ways to Help Sponsor a Yearbook:

1. Make a personal donation of any dollar amount towards the yearbook fundraiser. Click Here. The yearbook costs $16 per book--so any dollar amount will help!

2. Have your business sponsor an ad in the yearbook. Click here for information on sponsorship opportunities.

If you're interested in helping secure sponsorships or have ideas of businesses that might be interested in ad space in the yearbook, contact Elizabeth Hullender at githensyearbook@gmail.com.
