Cheers for Children 2024

Dear VUSD community, It is time once again to request your support for the 72nd annual Ventura Cheers for Children campaign. The Ventura Cheers for Children annual fundraiser is a Ventura Unified School District effort to provide food to families in need during the holidays. This year, we will continue with our community fundraising efforts to provide gift cards to families in need to shop for food and other essentials. With your help, we raised over $18,000 last year, assisting 317 VUSD families during the holidays and many other families throughout the year. See our Flyers in English or Espanol Donations are accepted electronically through Venmo @VenturaCheersForChildren (confirmation # 6371), making it easy and accessible to participate. Checks and cash are also accepted. Checks should be made out to VENTURA CHEERS FOR CHILDREN and given to your School Office. Please include the school you are supporting in the note section. Thank you in advance for helping to make this season a happy one for those less fortunate!
