PCMS Can You Imagine? Annual Fund Campaign Update  

 

Thank you Patriots!  Through your generous giving to the Can You Imagine? Annual Fund campaign, the PCMS Foundation Board of Directors has approved the following teacher grant requests:

 

  • Math on Call reference books to be used in every classroom ($3840) 
  • First in Math licensing for online math resource to enhance math fluency ($3600)
  • Document Based Questions (DBQ) Project to support all grade levels in Social Studies and Language Arts to develop critical thinking, analysis, and writing ($2275)
  • Grammar the Write Way classroom reference resource ($1550)

 

To date, we have raised $46,900 with 33% of Peachtree families participating in this year's Campaign.  This is a great start to our goal of 100% family participation in the Annual Fund campaign but we still have a way to go.  Our teachers are submitting grant requests weekly, so help us keep the momentum in getting resources into the classroom that the teachers need.  While a $125 donation is suggested, please consider donating at any giving level in which you are comfortable.  The PCMS foundation is a  501(c)(3) charitable organization and your donation is 100% tax-deductible. Click here to make your online donation. If giving by check or cash, you may leave your contribution in the front office.  Be sure to note your student's name and grade and reference "Annual Fund" on the outside of a sealed envelope.

 

Don't forget matching funds!  Many corporations have matching gift programs for their employees, retirees, and board members that will double and in some cases triple the portion of your gift that is tax deductible.  Contact your employer to determine if they will match your financial gifts and to find out the guideline for obtaining matching funds. If you have any questions regarding corporate matching funds programs, please contact Karen Courtney at [email protected]
