    Major Fundraisers

    WOLF PRIDE FUNDRAISER

    The Wolf Pride fundraiser is the most important PTA fundraising event at Terrace Park Elementary.  The event is designed to raise funds for field trips, music and enrichment programs, family events such as the Talent Show and Carnival, literacy programs, classroom stipends and supplies, books, Math and STEAM Night, and much, much more.

    READ-A-THON

    The Terrace Park Read-a-thon is our second biggest fundraiser of the school year.  This read-a-thon is designed to ignite and encourage a love of reading.  Like our fall Wolf Prize fundraiser, there is nothing to buy and there is no need to split profits with another organization.  As always, 100% of money donated goes directly to the PTA for student, family and staff programs.

    In the 2019 Read-A-Thon we had more students participate by reading than ever before.  In 2022, students read a total of 1,647 hours!! In 2023, students read a total of 1,774 hours!!  Keep reading Wolves!

     

    Past Fundraisers:

    THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING THE 2023 BOOK FAIR!

    A note from our PTA co-president, Melissa Wasserman: "We cannot thank the community and volunteers enough for supporting the Terrace Park Scholastic Book Fair. We had over $20,000 in sales. That means $10,000 in Scholastic dollars that can be spent on books for the library, teachers, students and specialists at Terrace Park.  All 329 of the books on the teachers wish lists were purchased and many teachers still need to pick out more books for their classrooms. Over $400 went directly to books for students thanks to the generous donations of our community. We had almost 20 volunteers help over the course of 7 days and nights. The staff support from the administration, the recess teachers, the custodial staff and library staff was invaluable in making this event possible."

    The March 2022 Terrace Park Book Fair had $4,636 in Scholastic book sales!  Your generosity supports literacy at home AND funds additional books to our library!

    Just The Facts:
    Your support allows PTA to spend approximately $50/student, or $14,000 every year on the students at our school.  Our goal was to raise $14,000. If every student raises $50 or more, we will meet our goal and reinvest it to our school community.

Many corporations will match donations to a non-profit organization, please ask donors if their company offers such a program.
