FUNDRAISING

Help us raise money to support our Silverbrook School Community 


A great school is built by a whole community. The PTO fundraises to provide the extra resources that make Silverbrook special. We believe our teachers and staff deserve the tools they need to help every student thrive.

​

Our fundraising supports classroom libraries, field trips, teacher grants, and school traditions. Crucially, we also fundraise to ensure every child can participate, providing financial assistance so costs never keep a student from being included. We don't fundraise just to fundraise; we do it because we have projects worth doing.

​

What Your Support Makes Possible

  • Student Planners: Academic planners for grades 3 and up.

  • Enrichment: Field trips, educational experiences, and school-wide community events.

  • Staff Support: Teacher grants, classroom stipends, requested supplies, and appreciation initiatives.

  • Learning Resources: Books for classrooms and the school library.

  • Inclusion: Financial assistance so all students can fully participate.

 

We listen to our teachers, staff, and families year-round to direct PTO dollars where they make the biggest difference.

​

The Silverbrook Way
We believe fundraising should feel less like selling and more like participating. Our community is busy, so we focus on opportunities that let you support the school while doing things you already enjoy, need, or want to do. It’s less "please buy this product" and more "we're all in this together"—giving back without adding to your to-do list.

Annual Giving Campaign ​

​​

Our primary fundraiser keeps it simple: skip the sales and make a direct, tax-deductible contribution to the PTO. Give whatever amount works for your family—every dollar counts. This campaign is the cornerstone fundraising program for the PTO's efforts, which yields funds for: 

  • Teacher and classroom support

  • Field trips and school events

  • School beautification and improvement projects

  • Additional school requests​​
