    🏎️🏁 Canefire 500 Fundraiser Event 🏁🏎️

    On Friday, May 2nd, Christian Liberty Academy students from preschool through 12th grade will team up for a high-energy scooter race– right inside our gym. It’s the Canefire 500, our one-of-a-kind, all-school event where fun meets purpose.

    🪑 Why We’re Racing:

    We’re raising funds for new desks and chairs for our classrooms. As more of our current desks break down from wear and tear, we’re running out of usable extras. We believe students learn best in a focused, distraction-free space, and quality furniture makes a difference.

    🎁 Ways to Donate:

    • Donate online at www.clahawaii.org/give
    • Place cash or check donations in the provided donation envelope & return envelope to school on Friday, May 2nd (checks can be made out to “Christian Liberty Academy” – Memo: Canefire500)
