What is the RED feather fundraising?
In Japan, at the beginning of October each year, everyone can be seen wearing a RED FEATHER on their shirt or clothing. This is a belief that YOU have done a good deed and earned a merit for it by wearing a RED FEATHER.
We are introducing the RED FEATHER fundraising initiative to support the PTA beginning WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 17th (during our Winter Festival). The suggested donation is $20.00per family. If you cannot attend, you may drop off a check in the office endorsed to the PTA. We will send you the red feather by mail.
PTA raises funds through membership and fundraising events. From these funds, the PTA provides a wide range of educational enrichment programs, scholarships, classroom materials, and much more! Your generous donations helped pay for the following items this current school year 2014-15:
