Ford Middle School takes traditional fund-raising “To the Mats”
The most unique fundraising concept to come along the pike in a very long while is quickly gaining popularity across the country. National organization, Custom Fundraising Solutions, creator of “The Mattress Fundraiser,” has given back over $30 million to schools across the country. On Saturday, April 7th, Albert Ford Middle School is taking traditional fundraising to the “mats” by hosting their own Mattress Fundraiser to raise money for their School Music Programs.
Owner and founder of the “Mattress Fundraiser,” Joe Matejka says the key to making the fundraisers so successful is the kids: “The concept is unusual but one that absolutely works. One in ten people buy a new mattress every single year. We offer the community a quality product they need, at a great price and the best part is that every sale benefits the school. Our one-day sale can help a group raise thousands of dollars! That is why we are in this business…to help the kids!”
Albert Ford Music will host their second annual Mattress Fundraiser on April 7th from 10am – 5pm. The Gym will transform into a 20+ bed showroom filled with all sizes and styles. Name brands like Simmons Beautyrest are available for up to 50% off retail prices! Watch for area yard signs and for the few lucky kids who get to wear the “mattress suit” while promoting the sale to passersby.
