Fundraising at Maple Grove
Fundraising is NOT the primary goal of the Maple Grove PTA. We raise funds to support the activities and programs at Maple Grove. We hope to enhance the education of our children, and for this purpose, we provide funds to the classroom and for PTA sponsored enrichment programs. We believe that PTA can contribute the most to the enrichment of our children's education by supporting the school with volunteers.
READ, RUN, and PARTY!
The Maple Grove PTA is involved in lots of activities and fundraisers and sometimes all of the announcements and calls for participation may seem overwhelming. The opportunities PTA provides for our students are diverse and plentiful; they enrich our student’s lives with afterschool activities and support in-school upgrades. Amazingly, all the many events and services PTA supports are mainly funded by three yearly fundraisers. These fundraisers ask for Maple Grove families to participate in just THREE valuable endeavors yearly, in order to raise money to support the plethora of PTA offerings. All we ask is that you Read, Run, and Party!
