Dear Brothers, Family, and Friends,

Today is the last day to buy a box in the Little Friends of Jesus fundraising Super Bowl box event to help our neighbors across the street. Your support is appreciated, and this will make watching the Superbowl even more fun.

Vivat Jesu,
Jon De Leon

Little Friends of Jesus

Fundraiser

LFOJ Header Picture
The Little Friends of Jesus school is running a 50/50 Super Bowl Box Pool. It's $50/box with half of the funds going to the school. The pot for the winners, assuming all 100 boxes get filled, is $2500.

If you're not familiar with how it works, here's a summary:
  1. Click on the link below and select a box.
  2. After the Superbowl teams are known (check back at the website after 1/30), numbers 0-9 will be randomly drawn across the top and the side
  3. The cross-section where your box is what your numbers will be.
    • For example, if your AFC number is 3 and your NFC number is 7, those are the ending numbers of the score you want to root for at the end of each quarter. So, if the score at the end of the 1st qtr. is AFC team 13 and NFC team 7, you win
    • The payouts for each quarter are below.
There's no skill involved. It's completely random luck. Please feel free to pass this on to your friends and family. They need to fill all 100 boxes by the 7th to run the contest. Half of the money will go to the school and will be earmarked for their flagpole and various other school events.

You can Venmo the Little Friends of Jesus directly (@LFOJPreschoolPTO). If you're interested, but don't have Venmo, let me know. We can work something out (i.e. I will pay for you, and you can send me a check or give me the money at the next in-person council meeting). Please reply to this email requesting my mailing address as needed.

If you do sign-up for a box (or boxes), please let me know so I can keep track with Corinne who paid.

Thanks!
