$100,000 + in FREE MONEY???
Did you know that many companies match the gifts you give to LPIE?  Last year LPIE brought in an extra $112,564 in matching gifts.  That's great.  This year, we'd like to double that money and it's pretty easy to do.  Here are 5 of the many companies with matching gift programs:  
 
Not sure if your company matches?  Check the information on our website www.lafayettepartners.org/give_matching.htmLet us know if you have requested a matching gift by emailing fundraising@lafayettepartners.org. Thanks, parents!

Music is Just the Tip of the Iceberg
Music education kindergarten through high school is one of the more visible
programs supported by LPIE, but there are many others.  We fund classroom aides, provide special programming and funding for science, make sure counselors are available, buy all sorts of classroom and library supplies, and support technology.  All of this is possible thanks to YOUR contributions. If you haven't made a donation for your child yet this year, please consider doing so now. Donate on-line at www.lafayettepartners.org or call our office (925-299-0644).  Thank you!    
 
LPIE at the Res Run
Stop by our booth after running or volunteering at the Res Run on Sunday
Oct. 30.  We'll have crafts and fun for the kids.  If you want to learn a
bit more about what your LPIE donation funds at your child's school, we will
have LPIE volunteers on hand to answer your questions.  We look forward to
seeing you there!
