FAQs about ARCHES Fundraising:

Didn't I already pay for the classes my child is taking at the beginning of the semester?
Yes and no. Your checks paid directly to the tutor do cover 100% of the tutor fees. The $25 per class administration fee, however, only covers a portion of the actual expenses. In addition to rent, we also pay for insurance, supplies, equipment, phone, web expenses, copying, and some modest wages.

Why don't you just raise prices instead of fundraising?
We could do that, but would prefer not to. It is a major goal of ARCHES to keep classes affordable for home educating families who are often single-income.

Isn't it a lot of work to set up these events? There must be a simpler way.
Each event does take a fair amount of planning, but one of the greatest blessing ARCHES has experienced is the sense of community that grew through our fundraising events. We moved beyond just dropping in for classes to becoming a group of friends working together toward a common goal. We've had a greater presence in our community, and we have fun! (And we earned money!) In every way, it proves to be worthwhile.

Can I just write a check to ARCHES instead of fundraising?
Absolutely! ARCHES is a non-profit corporation and any cash donations are fully tax deductible. We will gladly send you a receipt for income tax purposes. Just mail checks to ARCHES 5243 190th Lane NE, Wyoming, MN 55092 or put a clearly labeled check in the Latawiec file at any ARCHES meeting.

What fundraising activities does ARCHES have planned for this year?
Our primary fundraiser (BINGO) is tentatively scheduled for December 5, 2020. These nights are a fun combination of games, food, and community get-together. There will be many opportunities for you to get involved, including helping on the planning committees, sales at the event, kitchen help.

We have had the opportunity to bag groceries in exchange for tips at Cub Foods stores in the surrounding area. We hope to have several opportunities later in the year around the holidays so stay open for that and families will be notified as soon as Cub Food give us the dates.

Thank you in advance for all the ways your contributions will bless ARCHES this year. If you have any  questions regarding fundraising, please feel free to contact a member of the ARCHES board of directors.
