HeadsUp November Newsletter!

We are heading into the season of giving and gratitude and we can't wait to spotlight the incredible individuals working in our community who are alumni of our San Rafael City Schools! Leaders, Changemakers, Mentors...full circle moments, giving back and always Rooted in San Rafael!

Thank you to everyone who donated during our October Campaign! We had almost 300 families give and raised over $25,000! Congratulations to the Early Learning Center for winning this year's competition! We can't wait to bring the popsicle party to your site later this month!  

Our annual give campaign runs the entire school year, so there's still plenty of time to contribute, a gift of any amount is impactful!  Click the link to donate and make a difference.

We have limited tickets left for our 20th Annual Book Talk and Luncheon with Elaine Petrocelli, Founder and CEO of Book Passage.  Enjoy great company and delicious bites, while hearing about the 'must buy' books of the year! A great way to kick off your holiday shopping and the season of giving at the same time. 

Can't attend the luncheon? We'll miss you, but there's still an opportunity to participate! Book Passage will donate a percentage of sales that day (in person or online) to HeadsUp, make sure to mention the foundation at checkout.  

Your ticket purchase also enters you into a raffle for our 'Book Lovers Bundle' prize package. 

Last weekend, giving and gratitude were on full display at the Schools Rule - Marin Annual Gala! To be in a room full of individuals who understand that your zip code and neighborhood school shouldn't dictate your educational experience was inspriing to say the least.  HeadsUp is grateful and proud to be part of the coalition of public education foundations that make up Schools Rule- Marin, dedicated to raising funds for equitable education county wide. 

We're thrilled to partner with West End Nursery for a family friendly, holiday FUNdraiser! Complimentary refreshments, holiday crafts, photos with Santa and gift wrapping.  20% of any purchase will be donated to the Foundation.  Come sip, shop local and support our students, district and community! 

We are so excited that the annual Tree Lot at San Rafael High School is about to open! Come get a beautiful Christmas Tree, Wreaths and more, while supporting the High School.  There will be music and candy canes, Merry Merry!!
