Indigo Adopt - a - School Campaign Sept. 12 - Oct. 2nd

We are thrilled to announce that our school was selected to participate in this year’s Indigo Adopt-a-school fundraiser and will be supported by Indigo (Southland Mall) and Coles (Northgate Mall)!  

From September 12 to October 2, these stores will be fundraising on our behalf. During this time, our school community will also be raising funds to support our library through our online fundraising page: https://indigoloveofreadingfoundation.givecloud.co/fundraisers/gladys-mcdonald-school-regina-saskatchewan

.  

Our school will receive every dollar raised during these three weeks and will receive a 30% discount off books when shopping at Indigo, Chapters and Coles using fundraiser donations. Through the Adopt a School fundraiser, we are hoping to raise enough money to put one new book into the hands of each and every one of our students!
