Connecting Schools With Great Fundraising Ideas.

If you are looking for a fundraiser that will teach children about the important people and times of the Old West of the U.S.A., Buckboard Provisioning Co. has group of unique fundraising products. Each of the company’s products has an actual person, place or incident that took place during Old West history. Their coffee is called Stagecoach Mary’s Strong Black Coffee, named for a freed slave who was one of the first women to drive a U.S. mail wagon. Buckboard Provisioning Co. is located in Sisters, Oregon.

“We loved the way the fundraiser was an educational opportunity,” notes Jan Silberman, principal at Sisters Elementary of Sisters, Oregon which just concluded a fund drive with the company. “The product labels, the old-time newspaper Buckboard provided to each child and the website offered stories and puzzles the kids could relate to. Our teachers can use the resources on the web page to extend learning on their Lewis & Clark and Oregon Trail units if they wish. The fourth grade teaching team has even served the buffalo jerky and smoked salmon at our annual pow-wow.”

One Sisters Elementary student is being rewarded with a ride in a vintage carriage pulled by horses for his stellar fundraising efforts. The third-grader Andrew Stevens raised almost $200 for playground equipment. He will get to ride in the carriage from the Buckboard Provisioning Co. office located on Hood Avenue and help deliver Buckboard Provisioning Co. products to the school. The carriage ride is donated by Thunder Mountain Ranch.
