2023 Fall Fundraiser 

Dear Parkwood families and community,

We are reaching out to ask you to donate to our annual Invest in Parkwood campaign.               

Our annual fundraising goal is $30,000

Why do we fundraise?

Each year, the PTA raises money to pay for community-building events, educational enrichment, student scholarships, and to support Parkwood families in need. Rather than ask families to fundraise by selling wrapping paper or other items to your families and friends, we ask families to contribute directly to our PTA. This year in particular, the PTA has pledged to help “bridge the gap” in areas where our school district budget was cut. For example, we provide library, PE, and music grants, as well as classroom grants for every teacher.

Why is the goal so large?

In previous years, we have asked for half of our annual goal during the fall fundraiser, and then we held another fundraising event in the spring (such as an auction). We received feedback that people would rather know our entire goal up front, so we’re sharing our annual goal. Additionally, if we reach our entire goal up front, we won’t need to ask again in the spring.

How is the money used?

Your gift benefits your child(ren)’s education by providing enrichment opportunities and teacher grants. Last year, the PTA provided after-school enrichment scholarships and hosted several community events, including the Magic Science show, the School Dance, and the school Play. We sponsored affinity group events, including World Night, Video Game night, and many more. In years past, we have purchased gym and playground equipment, projectors, and many other items for the school.

  • Provide teacher grants to each class for discretionary
  • Fund our library and provide book fair vouchers for
  • Pay for educational enrichment inside and outside the classroom, including field trips and after-school enrichment
