Support FHS Cheer by donating goods to fundraiser

FALLBROOK – Community members are invited to donate gently-used clothing and household items at the Fallbrook High School (FHS) Cheer First Annual FUNDrive, to be held Sept. 23 from 7 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at Fallbrook High School’s parking lot.

The drive’s goal is to raise $300 or more in funds to support the FHS cheer squad with uniform items for the 2017-2017 cheer season. Acceptable donations include clothing, shoes, accessories, linens, books, and small household items (no furniture).

“Performing for our high school events during the 2017-2018 Cheer Season is a tremendous honor for the Fallbrook High School cheerleaders. Nearly a quarter of our cheerleaders rely on fundraisers or community sponsorships in order to participate. Events like FUNDrives help us raise needed funds so every cheerleader can participate in all cheer wonderful events,” said Fallbrook High cheer coach Escely Marr.

All goods collected through the FUNDrive are sold to Savers, the parent company to great thrift stores like Value Village, Unique, and Savers. They pay by the pound for every qualifying donation received. In turn, these items help keep their floors freshly stocked.
