Our Longfellow PTO, believes fundraising should support our students without overwhelming our families. That’s why we keep our focus on three major fundraisers each year:

• Annual Giving Campaign (Auguest/September) – direct support for our school programs

• Jog-a-thon (November) – a fun, healthy event for all students

• Silent Auction (March) – a community celebration and our largest fundraiser
  
  

Together, these three events provide the majority of funding for field trips, arts education, science enrichment, the garden program, and community events.

In addition, we occasionally host optional “dine out” gatherings. These are designed first and foremost as community-building events—a chance to connect with other Longfellow families. Any funds raised are a bonus.

By focusing on fewer, high-impact fundraisers, we aim to:

• Respect families’ time and resources

• Reduce “fundraising fatigue”

• Ensure every dollar raised directly benefits our students

Thank you for supporting our school and helping us create a vibrant, enriching experience for all Longfellow learners!
