Fuss-Free Fundraiser
To NOT sell anything as a Westchester Elementary Fundraiser. Don't sell pies. Don't sell coupon books. Don't clip coupons or count minutes. Join us in spirit only and show your appreciation for not being asked to do ANYTHING AT ALL by donating to the WE PTA.
The spring at Westchester Elementary has traditionally brought with it excitement for our largest fundraiser of the year – Battle of the Bands! This fundraiser typically raised around $15,000 for the PTA to help fund important things like field trips, teacher workshops, electronics, media center necessities, and more. Although we know that Westchester rocks, this year is different.
Due to the uncertainty with the ongoing pandemic, we do not feel an in-person large gathering would be appropriate. Instead, we have decided to do a Fuss-Free Fundraiser. We hope to raise $10,000 for the school starting on April 11, 2022 to help ongoing efforts to support our teachers, students, and staff.
What is a Fuss-Free Fundraiser?
It is a simple fundraiser with nothing to volunteer for, nothing to buy, and nothing to sell, and none of your time to give. No need to get a babysitter, spend time getting ready, or attend an event. Simply donate the money you may have spent on these activities directly to the PTA. Best of all- 100% of the proceeds go to supporting the school AND you get all that time back to your already busy lives!! It’s a win-win! We are raising funds for the PTA to be able to support the school in the following ways:
Picnic tables so our students can continue enjoying outdoor lunches!
STEM projects
Classroom and media center materials
Community events to enrich our lives
There are multiple ways to make a contribution:
1) Print and return the completed form below with a check in your student’s school folder or drop it at the school
2) Pay via PayPal (PayPal account: PTA4Westchester@gmail.com) or by scanning this QR Code:
