Keep those ROAR donations coming through September 21! 🐾❤️🖤
From September 14–18, students who receive a donation to the Meyzeek PTSA ROAR Fundraiser will be entered into our daily prize drawings!
🎁 Some of the prizes include:
• 10 Heine Bros. free drink cards
• 4 Louisville Slugger Museum & Factory Tour passes (about a $101 value)
• A gift card from The Post Restaurant
• A gift card from Kizito Cookies
And we’re adding more gift cards and local experiences every day!
🌟 Here’s how it works: Each night at 9 PM, we’ll randomly draw one student’s name from everyone who received a donation that day. That student will win one of our donated prizes!
Have family or friends who want to support Meyzeek? September 14–18 is a great time to donate! ❤️🖤
