Thank you for donating to the last out of uniform day! We collected $411.50 for the Rising Star Junior School in Uganda! The following is a note they sent to us:
“Holy Apostles School, thank you so much for supporting Rising Star Junior School. With the money collected, we plan on investing in our athletic
program by purchasing soccer and volleyball equipment. Your contribution to our school is greatly appreciated and will never be forgotten. God Bless!!”
Student Council is coordinating the Adopt-A-Family Christmas service project again this Advent to help build a spirit of community of giving. Every grade will sponsor a family: K3, K4, and K5 will
share a family. These families have been referred by numerous child service agencies, schools, and churches in Waukesha County. The Christmas Clearing Council of Waukesha County has served this community and its children for over sixty years, and Holy
Apostles School has sponsored families for over 20 years. Our next out of uniform day on Monday, December 4th will support this great cause. Learn more here.

The profit will continue to benefit our Home and School. Below is the information you need to order online. We won’t be facilitating any paper orders this year. We are again using the Great American Opportunities (GAO) Company: Our school code is 25890967 Also, a link to the GAO website is on the fundraising section of the Holy Apostles School web page. Additional items besides magazines are available on the site, and all of the items will produce a 40% profit for us. Thanks again for all your fundraising efforts, they are truly appreciated! - Lynn Godec
