October 2024 Funding Sponsors Campaign for Mock Trial Funding - Donations anyone?

As you can see from articles below - the CHS Mock Trial teams are award winning and very accomplished.  Traveling to these competitions, regionally, statewide, nationally and more - is not inexpensive - but of course is very worthwhile for these talented students. 

They are begining an outreach to those who can contribute in any denomination.  However, those who's contribution is $1000 or more will receive Sponsor public recognization with their investments in this team.  (click request letter below to enlarge or download).

Directly from this Sponsorship letter request....
" Now, we are looking for 10 sponsors at $1,000 or more to once again make these trips possible and accessible for each member of our competition team, but any amount is greatly appreciated.  These donations can be made through the Carmel High School students store or via check made out to the "Carmel High School - AssociatedStudent Body" and mailed to PO Box 222780 Carmel, Ca 93922.
