The majority of FOM's funding comes from our annual giving campaign, The Marquez Enrichment Fund ("The Fund"), which typically accounts for 70% of the total funds raised by FOM in a given school year.   Our goal for The Fund is 100% participation from Marquez Families.  FOM gratefully accepts any contribution, from $10 to $10,000, and we hope every family will donate the amount that makes sense for them.   We have a Corporate Matching gift program for companies that match their employee's charitable donations.   We also accept Stock Transfers.   FOM raises the remainder of its funding through a variety of community and school events such as our Annual Auction, Year of Parties, and many more.  Friends of Marquez also receives many generous Community Sponsorships from our local businesses and families.   At Marquez Charter School, we take pride in our long-standing tradition of parent engagement and active involvement.  Parents collaborate with the school's administration, teachers and staff to ensure that our children receive an excellent, enriched and well-rounded education at Marquez.
