Dear Friends and Supports of Terrace Community Middle School,

As Terrace Community Middle School begins its 10th year of excellence in educating middle school students in Hillsborough County, we ask you to participate in our fall fundraiser traditionally called "Team Tornado". Team Tornado is very simple. You don't have to buy cookies, attend a dinner or have your car washed. Just make a tax-deductible donation by cash or check in any amount you are able to give.

Your donation is extremely important. As a public charter school, TCMS receives less funding than traditional public schools because we do not receive your local two mils property tax. Please help us reach our goal of $75,000.00 by making a tax-deductible donation by cash or check to Terrace Community Middle School.

How will your donation be used? This year we have moved into our own building (hurray!). The interior of the school is wonderfully completed, however work remains to be done to finish the grounds and the outside. Funds collected this year will be designated for the enclosed outside addition to our cafe (cafeteria) so that all of our students can eat lunch together, two outdoor facilities for equipment and an outdoor basketball court.

Final day for donations is October 12th.
