Please Help Support Our Fundraiser
Hi! We need your help to raise money for Andover eCademy.
From now until November 29 , we are selling Little Caesars Pizza Kits and Meal Deal Codes! I know you like pizza, and these pizzas are sooooo good!
Let's raise some dough for Andover eCademy!! Your purchase helps fund activities, supplies, and special events for our students and teachers. We appreciate your support and school spirit!
All you need to do is click on my link or scan my QR code with your phone https://fundraising.littlecaesars.com/products?support=bf7bee91-1280-4f9d-ae00-9f9e9b5b4ecb, pay with a credit card, and the yummy Kits will be shipped to your door via FedEx.
It’s the same price to ship 1 or 2 kits, so I’m thinking you might want to contribute!
