Help EASTIE SOAR TO meet OUR 2024-2025 fundraising goal!
The PTC funds a variety of school needs: classroom supplies, library books, enrichment programs, assemblies, field trips, equipment, facility upgrades and much more. To do so, the PTC plans a variety of fundraisers throughout the school year.
THE EAGLE'S NEST is our largest fundraiser. We depend on the generosity of our East School Community to help Eastie SOAR! Parents, grandparents, staff and friends all come together to donate any amount during this three week campaign. We aim to raise $100,000 to cover the cost of our programs and to make material improvements in our children's school experience. Our goal is to have 100% participation - no donation is too big or too small!
WHERE DOES MY DONATION GO?
Each year, the PTC spends over $150,000 for enrichment activities, classroom and teacher support above the school budget, community programs and special projects as the school needs.
