Fundraisers

Performing Arts students (primarily band, orchestra and choir students) are selling coupons for Frozen Lou Malnati's take-home pizzas. Each coupon sells for $13. Students will earn $5 in escrow on each coupon sale. They can use the escrow money to help offset the costs of future school-sponsored trips/travel, including the 2023 orchestra trip to Orlando, Florida. This escrow fundraiser runs throughout November.

Each coupon is good for one 9” frozen deep-dish pizza (cheese, sausage, pepperoni or spinach only) to be picked up by customers at any Lou Malnati’s location, including in Arizona, Indiana and Wisconsin.

The coupon is good for six months; the expiration date will be at the bottom of the coupon. At this time, a gluten-free option is not available with the coupons.

Coupons may be used for a frozen heart-shaped pizza during holiday season, depending on availability and what is in stock at the location.

Please note: Coupons are not valid for shipping frozen deep-dish pizzas. They must be brought into the store for a pickup of frozen pizzas.
Coupons cannot be used toward other food items or toward shipping.

Led by Director of Bands Mr. Pavlik and Assistant Director of Bands William Ernst, York High School band students volunteered their time on October 22 to clean up and beautify their hometown of Elmhurst.

The event also served as a fundraiser for York Music Boosters and all of the work that YMB does on behalf of York's Performing Arts Program and students — student grants and financial assistance, the York Album Project, facility improvements, help with private lessons, guest speakers and more.

Thanks to everyone who donated to YMB on behalf of our hard-working students. Donations also are still being accepted.
