Pledge Drive 2024
Dear DeLaveaga Elementary School Families,
​
It’s that time of year again. We are amazed at how quickly summer flew by, excited to get back to school, and ready for our Annual Pledge Drive!​The Pledge Drive is the biggest fundraiser of the year. Last year we raised over $55,000 to support our students, staff, and the DeLaveaga Elementary School community. Can you help us to raise evenmore this year?
Your gift will directly support:
​
1. Students – Graduation activities, yearbooks, student assemblies, and our student council are all
supported with funds from this Pledge Drive.
​
2. Staff – Our amazing library, Life Lab, yard duty, educational support staff, and front office staff are
partially funded with resources from this Pledge Drive.
What would we do without these amazing educators?
​
3. Community – Bike to School Day, Dia del Nino, the Holiday Parade, and other community events all
rely on funds from this Pledge Drive. These educational, fun events are what make DeLaveaga such a special place for our kids to learn and grow.
​
Make your gift online and help us foster a fun, safe, and inclusive learning community for our kids. You can
also set up a monthly recurring gift or an employer match online.
(Directions to give by check are below).
​
This year's pledge drive runs from now through September 13. We will follow up with you three more
times between now and September 13 with a reminder to give and stories of how Pledge Drive funds
are making our school a better place.
​
We are proud of DeLaveaga Elementary School – of our students, staff, and community. Give now and
help make this school year our best year yet.
​
Many thanks! And Go Dragons!
​
Yours,
The DeLaveaga Parent Teacher Club
