Summer Reading Challenge
If you haven't done so yet this year (2008):
1. Link (or re-link) your Food Lion MVP card so Washington gets a donation whenever you shop. This costs you nothing, it's just a reward for being an MVP customer. It has to be re-linked each school year!
2. Subscribe to receive your PTA newsletter in your e-mail. Save us the cost of printing, read it online. We start this list fresh each year, so even if you were signed up last year, please sign up again this year.
3. Sign up for committees that match your interests. There's something for everyone!

Fundraising
Phantom Fundraiser
The job of the PTA's Ways and Means Committee is to raise funds which are then used to pay for the many programs, events and grants which enrich our students' educational experiences and support our wonderful staff at Washington. Since 1997, Washington PTA has been able to fund the majority of its budget with donations made during its Phantom Fundraiser. This unique fundraiser does not require our children to sell products and 100% of the proceeds go directly to Washington's PTA.
Click to download the donation card. (22mb pdf file)
Corporate Matching Grants Some companies (click to see a list) will match employee donations made during Phantom Fundraiser, either monetarily or with equipment for the school.
