Sophomores Kick Off Different Fundraiser

The Class of 2028 at Hamilton Heights High School is kicking off its most interactive fundraiser yet: the “Buy a Day” Calendar Challenge — a simple, community-powered way to help fund their junior prom and future graduation celebrations.

Designed to turn small gifts into big impact, the challenge invites supporters to “fill the board” by purchasing dates on a 30‑day calendar. Every square cleared brings the class one step closer to its goal.

How It Works:

Pick a Date: The donation amount matches the date. Example: April 5 = $5, April 22 = $22.

Pick a Meaning: Supporters are encouraged to choose dates that matter — birthdays, anniversaries, lucky numbers, or milestone moments.

Watch the Math Add Up: A fully completed 30‑day calendar raises $465. If the class fills eleven calendars, they’ll reach nearly $5,000.

“Instead of asking a few people for large sums, we are relying on the power of our community,”  the Class of 2028 planning committee pointed out. “Whether it’s one dollar or thirty, every square filled brings us closer to our goal.” Students are encouraged to share their calendars with family, friends, coworkers, and neighbors — or even post their progress on social media — to help Clear the Board.

All calendars and donations are due Monday, April 27. Cash or check (Checks payable to HHHS Class of 2028). All envelopes should be returned to Mrs. Wiegman in the Counseling Office.

To request a calendar or learn more about the fundraiser, please contact cwiegman@hhschuskies.org or (317) 984-3551 ext. 1050.
