IMPORTANT UPDATE: New Format & Focus We are thrilled to announce that the Knights Guard Safety Match has been MET! With our campus security funding goal met, we are expanding the focus of this year's Fund-a-Need to the heart of the student experience: Enrichment & Academics.

Please Note: This campaign is the official 2026 Fund-a-Need, as auction paddles during the event will be used solely to procure live auction items. To cover our operating deficit and reach our goals for the upcoming school year, we are asking families to make any pledges that have not been already made and secure advertising donations now. While donations throughout the year are always accepted and greatly appreciated, The Knights Guard campaign/competition officially closes on April 2nd.

Leave Your Mark: Personalized Locks/Recognition

To celebrate your family's commitment to the Knights Guard, leading up to the spring event your kids will be recognized at Monday morning assembly and will place personalized (family name) locks on the community fence. A student earns a lock once they reach a raised donation total of $500 towards the Knights Guard Fund a Need.

The size and color of the lock correspond to the highest sponsorship tier reached:

Two Ways to Reach the $500 Minimum Goal

Families can generate funds toward their $500 goal through two methods, with all funds tracked under the student's name for the Class Competition. Highest raising class will receive an end of year party fit for Kings and Queens:

1. Direct Donations

Garner contributions from parents, family members, friends, and the broader community using the Fund-A-Need ~ Knights Guard donation tiers listed above.

2. Sell Ad Space in the Auction Guide

Students can sell advertising space for local businesses to feature their brand in the official Auction Guide, which is distributed to parents, parishioners and locals attending the "Country Knights" fundraiser.

• The total cost of the ad space sold by the student will be credited toward their family's Knights Guard fundraising goal.

• The Auction Guide provides targeted exposure to highly engaged North County families and positions the business as a dedicated supporter of local education.
