The Ways & Means

The Ways & Means Committee will be responsible for the fundraisers during the year. Right now we have two major ones slated.

As you know, the Boosterthon Fun Run is already underway. This year, the officers have taken that one under their wing, since it is a new event, with a new company, and it started during the summer, we ran with it! Next year - we will be happy to turn it over to the committee! :O) The other big fundraiser we have annually is our esteemed Growing Dreams Auction in the Spring.

We have also added a Togo's fundraiser into the mix - much like we've seen in the past with Baja Fresh - where families eat at Togo's on a specified day and proceeds will come back to the PTA. This is a slam dunk for us! Who doesn't love Togo's?

We would love for this committee to also take on Grant Writing as well - there is a wealth of grants available to us on www.pta.org - it's a matter of someone taking the initiative and time to make this happen for us!

What other fundraising can this committee come up with for us? Creative minds are welcome!

If you are interested in chairing this committee and delegating these efforts, will look forward to seeing you on Tuesday, September 18th @ 4:00pm and have you join the PTA!
