Special Calendar Fundraiser

by Haley

I am currently fundraising V.P at my daughter's elementary school. This is how I am indirectly involved in a calendar fundraiser. We have another part of P.T.A. which is called S.E.P.T.A. This stands for Special Education Parent Teacher Association. This includes both special education as well as the gifted and talented children as well.

They take the regular school calendar and "shrink" it into a pocket edition and sell it. This way it can be brought along wherever you go. S.E.P.T.A used to go around to all the elementary school P.T.A. meetings and sell them.

This coming year, each elementary school P.T.A. has to take a certain amount to sell on their own. I know from past years that the parents really look forward to buying these special calendars and it ends up being a great way to raise money for special events and other extras that the school needs.
