Patch Blog: Aldama Elementary Needs Your Vote

Our budget has been extremely cut and reduced from $30,000 for supplies to $5,000, Aldama Elementary can really use YOUR vote to get up to $10,000 from Give With Target®.

spent $30,000 on supplies for the 2011-2012 school year, but with the extreme budget cuts Aldama only has $5,000 to spend this school year. Aldama needs solutions and needs the help of the community.

One way you can help Aldama get up to $10,000 in much needed school supplies is through Give With Target®. Simply go to Facebook, choose Aldama Elementary and vote for the school weekly through September 8th. Aldama will receive a $25 Target GiftCard for every 25 votes received during the Promotion Period; we can earn up to a maximum of $10,000 in gift cards. Every vote is worth $1!

Are Aldama families voting? One of the biggest challenges Aldama faces in reaching the $10,000 mark is that voting is done through Facebook and many of the Aldama families don't have access to computers, much less have a Facebook account. 

It is really sad that Aldama can not fully take advantage of this great opportunity and that at the end of it all the kids will suffer.

Please help Aldama reach its goal of 10,000 votes by voting. Even if Aldama doesn't reach its goal of 10,000 votes, all votes are very much appreciated and the Aldama community thanks you in advance!

I want peace and quiet in my home. "No way, Jose" believes I should not have peace andRead More quiet in my home. That is a dicatator.

False? Wrong!! I have the letter as proof. Did "no way, Jose" write the letter? IfRead More patch wants to see it, let me know. It is the truth.

Church members want peace and quiet in their own homes but the freedom to force religion on others.Read More And, they want the freedom to force noise into other people's homes. Anyone from Divine Saviour want some noise forced into their home like some banging metal pans?

Jesse is fine. He is campaining for Cedilllo. Neither have ran away. Both have appreciated myRead More help in campaining for Cedillo. His eyeliner must have faded away. All that matters is that he will do more than "no way, Jose" has done in 12 years with "do nothing, Ed Reyes." My problem is not with bells, it is with the noise (amplified sound) from Divine Saviour Catholic Church. You need to get your facts straight. Noise is a mental issue. Divine Saviour Catholic Church is the one with a mental issue. They are hypocrites that they want to force noise on others then they themselves want peace and quiet. Get the facts.
