Drive for Schools is a tremendous opportunity for Mount Madonna School students to raise money asĀ 100% of the proceeds go directly to the school. Founded in 2005, and sponsored by the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, Drive for Schools has successfully raised over $8 million total for local schools.

This year, the grand prize is $25,000 cash. There are also five $1,000 cash prizes plus over 100 additional prizes! The complete prize list can be viewed or downloadedĀ here.

All elementary, middle and high schools in Santa Cruz County are invited to participate at no cost. Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk provides the prizes, printed tickets, and publishes promotional materials. Mount Madonna School students sell the tickets for $5 each or $25 for a book of six and the school keeps every single penny raised.

Packets with tickets and instructions will be sent home on Monday, September 15 and each student will have the opportunity to sell these tickets within their community and to friends and family members. The fundraiser ends October 20. All ticket stubs must be returned to MMS on or before October 21.

The ticket drawing will be held on October 27 at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk. Ticket holders do not need to be present to win.
