The mission of the Mira Costa High School (MCHS) Visual Art Education Booster club, also called the 9×12 Fund, is to create an effective fundraising group in support of MCHS Visual Art Education. The 9×12 Fund connects students, parents, local businesses, and boosters with opportunities to donate to MCHS Visual Art Education. Core on-going fundraising programs include events, crowdfunding platforms, selling student-made products, local partner programs and sponsorships, and other initiatives. The primary driving principle of the 9×12 Fund is to effectively raise money for MCHS Visual Art Education in ways that are low-impact to the staff, and facilitate opportunities for students to feature their art work and creative overall awareness of the needs and successes of MCHS Visual Art Education and Programs.
