Friends of Carden
In 2005, Friends of Carden (FOC) was created as a non-profit organization with the purpose of providing an avenue for friends, family, and alumni to make tax-deductible donations to the school. In addition to accepting monetary donations, Friends of Carden organizes fundraisers and campaigns to raise money that is used to enrich the students’ school experience in the classroom, in the computer lab, and on the athletic field. These donations cover items and events that fall outside the realm of expenses that are funded by annual tuition and school-sponsored fundraising initiatives.
FOC consists entirely of parent volunteers of current or former students of Carden Academy. The scheduling of events and distribution of funds are coordinated by the FOC Board of Directors, also parent volunteers, that work closely with the administration to achieve common fundraising goals. These goals are accomplished through the tireless efforts of the larger community of Carden parents - people like you!
Friends of Carden fundraising initiatives and events include:
- Annual Crab & Pasta Feed and Silent Auction
- Fall Family Fun Festival
- Cookie Dough Fundraiser
- Box Tops for Education
- eScrip
- S.H.A.R.E.S. Cards
- Campbell's Labels for Education
We encourage all parents to get involved and find an area that interests them to share their talents and energy. We also welcome new ideas for events and purchases that enrich the lives of all in the Carden family!
