Fundraising for your Marching Band Fee and Spring Band Trip 

The NADBP works hard to provide a variety of fundraising opportunities to families to help offset the cost of your student's marching band fee and the cost of the Spring Band Trip. Please read the fundraising opportunities below carefully.  If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Robyn Mascari at nadbp.executivevp@gmail.com. 

GIANT EAGLE GIFT CARD FUNDRAISING: $50 Giant Eagle gift cards may be purchased at face value from the NADBP and have a 5% rebate back to your student's band fees or trip. Gift cards may even be used to purchase gift cards for other retailers from Giant Eagle.  If you would like to purchase gift cards, please email nadbp.executivevp@gmail.com to arrange to purchase any day after band practice.  Checks may be made payable to NADBP with your student's name in the memo line.

Aramark contributes $130 - $200 per person, per game worked to offset the student's band fees and trip costs.  Aramark fundraising opportunities are available between August and early January.
