Hello, my name is Mariangel Velasquez-Escobar.  I am a student at Grace Christian School, and I am asking all my friends and family to support me for my school's annual Sports-A-Thon Fundraiser Challenge.

The GCS Sports A Thon Fundraising Challenge is tons of fun for us students.  The proceeds go to support the mission of Grace Christian School.  This year, the funds raised will go towards our mission and the future construction of the Robert R. Gustafson Center.

The Gustafson center will be home to a new gymnasium, 12 classrooms, two lecture auditoriums, locker rooms, concessions, and administrative offices. As you can imagine, we are excited about seeing what the Lord has in store for my school and I am respectfully asking you to be a part of it.

I love my school and am excited to a part of this year's fundraiser to help more students JUST LIKE ME attend Grace Christian School.  Here are me and my team’s goals:

• I have a $ 425 goal!  If I can accomplish my goal, I will be rewarded with a free trip to Busch Gardens. 
• My Class has a $16,400.00 goal!  If we can accomplish our goal, we will all be rewarded with a special Field Trip or a day off from school.
• The Class that raises the most money will have a special plaque honoring them in the new Robert R. Gustafson Center.

Thank you for your participation and for helping me and my classmates reach our goals.  Thank you for your support!
