Somerset PTSA

Annual Fall Fundraising Drive

Somerset PTSA annual Fall Fundraising Drive to raise funds for the current school year is officially kicked off and runs through 10/11/2019.  Instead of asking you to buy/sell items, PTSA is asking that you PLEASE make a direct donation to help us fund our programs for the whole school year. Remember that at Somerset we don’t nickel and dime you by asking for payments for each individual field trip or enrichment activity. All the money raised by the PTSA goes straight back to teachers and students. Your donation is 100% tax deductible. Your support is critical to maintain and improve Somerset’s high quality academic, extracurricular and social programs. We need you to participate.

Suggested donation is at least $200 per student attending Somerset Elementary.

 Our goal is 100% participation. 

Donations in any amount are meaningful and appreciated.
