Our PTSA is an independent non-profit organization with a mission to support and enrich educational programs at Samantha Smith Elementary. To provide the support to our school and children, to make certain programs are possible, and to bridge the gap between public funds and actual expenses, we need to raise money.
The Samantha Smith PTSA funds programs, equipment, classroom supplies, and services each year that benefit our students. Programs like the Science Fair, Explore Art, Family Nights and many others would not exist without PTSA fundraising.
To see the list of fundraisers planned for this year, visit the list of Programs, and find the categories for Ongoing Incentives and Annual Fundraising Events. Annual fundraising events are those which we plan and coordinate ourselves, and from which 100% of the funds go directly to the PTSA. Ongoing Incentive fundraisers are those in which we've partnered with another organization. Both are important ways you can help to raise the funds the PTSA needs to provide ongoing support for the educational needs of our children.
