Start a Shaker Student Travel Savings Fund Today!
At the high school level, a great number of travel opportunities exist for students–whether touring in Europe with fellow students from the band, choir or orchestra, engaging in a language immersion program to Chile or Germany, or participating in a service project in Southeast Asia.
While all student travel experiences have fundraising opportunities to support the trips, we know these costs are great. The time to start saving is NOW! Our partnership with Huntington will allow you to start a Student Travel Savings Fund now.
Your savings today will give your student the experience of a lifetime in high school! To start your student’s travel fund, contact Brandon Tufts at Huntington’s Fairmount Circle branch at 216-515-0285.
