Read-A-Thon: Mission Sponsors Needed!

So, you have read about the great success of our mission to date. People throughout the Terraset community are finding their space to read and accumulating those meteor-minutes. However, the ultimate success of this "rocket" will be measured by how much it ignites the interest of sponsors!

Sponsorship will deliver a badly needed pay-load to the school. Have you started asking yet? Grandmas, grandpas, aunts, uncles... bring them all into the fold and sign them up for this mission.

Here is the Standard Operating Procedure for this phase of the mission:
    Rocket into reading
  1. Student participants should ask family, friends and neighbors to sponsor them.
  2. Adult participants should consider making a donation ($5-$10 would make a difference)
  3. Sponsors can pledge 1c per minute, or more. 
  4. Some sponsors may prefer to make a donation. A $20 donation is nearly equivalent to a sponsorship rate of 1c per minute if you read 60 minutes each day. Collect these donations at the time they are offered.
  5. Total minutes (at-home plus at-school) will be calculated and then reported to you on Tuesday, April 8th. 
  6. Once you have this report, collect your sponsors’ pledges.
  7. Sponsors calculate the amount they owe using the total minutes you read multiplied by the amount per minute they pledged.
  8. Return all sponsorship and donation funds to school by Friday, April 11th.  
  9. Results and rewards will be announced Monday, April 21st.
So, one small step for a Terraset Tiger, one giant leap for our Terraset Pride! Make your contribution to this cosmic event!
