Did you know that you can help support our work while having fun with friends and neighbors?
Host a Drink Red for Public Ed™ fundraiser at your home. It’s a great way to advance the cause of public education in North Carolina while helping Public Schools First NC! By aiding us with our fundraising efforts, you enable us to do the important work of educating the citizens of North Carolina about the value of public schools!
Drink Red for Public Ed™ events are fundraisers. If you would prefer to host an informational event in your community, our In Praise of Public Education event is for you!
Drink Red for Public Ed™: What’s involved?
Set a date. Make a guest list. Send out invites. Buy food and drink. Then open your doors for great conversation about the state of public education in North Carolina.
It’s that simple. We’ll provide the following materials so you can have a successful “fun” raiser:
- Host instructions sheet
- Sample message from PSFNC
- Donation cards
- Donation reporting form
- Checks payable tent card
- Sample invitation/flyer
- Drink Red for Public Ed logo for your event
The Drink Red for Ed theme was inspired by teachers who started wearing red t-shirts on Wednesdays in support of public education. We ask that you honor the spirit of this theme by serving the red drink of your choice at your event.
Get started!
The work we do is a labor of love, but we need resources to accomplish our goals.
