The CampaignThe Carlsbad Unified School District's "World Class Schools Committee" and the Carlsbad Educational Foundation/Kids Are Worth A MillionTM launched the Preserving Our World Class Schools Campaign in June to raise awareness and contributions to help offset a portion of projected funding cuts of up to $4.5M for the upcoming school-year.
Campaign funds will specifically offset cuts in two primary areas:
Nearly 400 individual and corporate donors came forward to support the importance of education in this time of need during an intensive, three-week fundraising campaign. Total contributions came in at just over $62,000 which was matched by an additional $62,000 provided by the Carlsbad Educational Foundation. With the addition of $480,000 in additional grants, the foundation was able to announce $604,000 in support to the District for its 2008 - 2009 school-year.
