Raising funds is essential for the PTO. Without fundraising, we would not be able to fund the programs, activities, purchases, and events that we provide to enrich the VFMS experience for our students and school.
There is no one-solution-fits-all for successful fundraisers. Some people love social events, others like to shop from home. What we have found, though, is that most parents WANT to contribute and help. So we come up with as many fun, interesting, and easy fundraisers as we can!
Some of the ways you can donate to the PTO:
Direct Donation Program
The quickest and easiest way to give to the PTO is through Direct Donations. Our Direct Donation Program provides a way for supporters to make a direct contribution to the PTO – no event to attend, nothing to purchase; just a straight donation (and it’s tax-deductible!). Visit our Direct Donation page to learn more or donate now!
Fundraising Social Events
Throughout the school year, the PTO holds several social events that raise funds for the PTO and offer an opportunity for socializing. These events are announced through our News & Announcements section of the homepage, through e-mail Blasts, and on Facebook. For more information about some of these events, visit our Social Events page.
