Stuck for a Buck: Mt. View Gym Turns into Fundraising Fun Zone

Mt. View School’s gym was transformed into a scene of laughter, excitement, and charitable spirit during the recent Stuck for a Buck fundraiser, all in support of the Elle Foundation. The event, organized to bring awareness and raise funds for the organization that grants wishes to children fighting cancer, featured two brave volunteers—teachers Kim Crespo and Cori Mazzacca.

With duct tape in hand and dollar bills ready, students lined up for the chance to stick their teachers to the gym wall—one strip of tape at a time. Each piece cost $1, and the gym buzzed with energy as Ms. Crespo and Mrs. Mazzacca were slowly but surely lifted off the ground by layers of tape.

Laughter filled the room as students giggled and cheered, working together to make sure their teachers stayed put. By the end of the taping, the crowd erupted in applause, but the grand finale was still to come.

With the entire school watching, both Ms. Crespo and Mrs. Mazzacca were pied in the face—a messy, whipped cream-filled moment that had students roaring with laughter. It was a sweet ending to a sweet cause.

 

 

This year’s event raised an impressive $1,477.17, bringing the 16-year cumulative total to an astounding $15,665.57. All the proceeds raised from the event will go toward the Elle Foundation, helping support their ongoing efforts. The Stuck for a Buck event was not only a fun way to bring the school together but also a meaningful way to give back to a wonderful cause.
