PTA Spring Fundraiser -Donation through 5/8!
We did reach our goal but you can still contribute to take us over the top!
Every year, with your generous support, the Slate Hill PTA provides funding for various activities such as Star Fun Day, Fall Fest, Staff Appreciation Events, Staff Mini Grants, Senior Scholarship, and much, much more! Part of our revenue also comes from the sale of plants or other product driven fundraisers.
But this year, instead of selling plants or other items, we are going to try something new! Introducing the ‘UN-Fundraiser’! Nothing to sell or buy! No gimmicks! It’s that easy…Just DONATE!
Mrs. Gulley, Mr. Pound, Mrs. Loges, Mrs. Rosengarten and Mx. Kochensparger will get pies in the face on MAY 12th at 2:15pm in front of all of our students for each of the milestones we hit in donations. We will try to live stream this if possible.
Our goal is to reach $2500! We are already half way there. We will continue to accept donations through May 8th! WE APPRECIATE YOUR SUPPORT!
Another great part of the UN-Fundraiser is that you can share it with family and friends! Share this link with your friends and family, and they can donate also!
https://app.memberhub.gives/f4d572 or share the attached flier with your colleagues at work.
Thank you for your support! We cannot do this without you!
