Ways to Support Our Fundraising Efforts
At Leslieville Junior Public School, our School Council employs a strategic approach to fundraising, ensuring that we meet our goals effectively while involving the entire school community. Here are the primary ways we fundraise:
1. Family Giving
Encourage direct contributions from families at Leslieville JPS to support our strategic initiatives. We hope to make this our largest fundraiser this year, focused on direct donations that immediately impact our school and let us plan activities for the year ahead, with the bonus of being tax deductible and an opportunity for families to contribute more to our school if they are able.
2. Fundraising Events
Host a variety of community events that serve both as fundraisers and as opportunities for community engagement, including:
3. Corporate Donations and Grants
Develop partnerships with local businesses and apply for grants that align with our school’s needs and values.
Your Participation Makes a Difference
Each family’s involvement, whether through attending events, volunteering, making a donation, or connecting us with potential corporate sponsors, makes a substantial impact on our ability to provide a superior educational experience for all students at Leslieville JPS.
