Hello Families!
The River Grove PTO has some important announcements. Read below for more details on our fall fundraiser and merchandise store. Check your email for more news!
Fall Fundraiser: Give to the Max Day on November 19, 2020
The River Grove PTO is excited to sponsor our school as part of this year’s Give to the Max Day!
What is Give to the Max Day?
Now in its 12th year, Give to the Max Day is Minnesota’s annual giving holiday. GiveMN links donors with organizations from around the state on one website, givemn.org. This year’s Give to the Max Day is November 19th .
What are we raising money for?
We will be campaigning to raise money for our school’s music program. The school and the PTO subsidize our band and orchestra program to make it more affordable for all interested students to participate. The PTO also reimburses the school for music education each year. In previous years, this has been fulfilled in a partnership with Zephyr Theatre, but due to COVID restrictions, this year all students are learning music remotely with a program called Quaver, which has opened some great new learning experiences for our students. Our goal is to raise $5,000 for the school.
What are we asking you to do?
We would love for you to spread the word and the link for our campaign to your family and friends. Any size donation is so helpful for a small charter school like ours.
When and how can you donate?
Donations on our site can be made starting now and any day leading up to Give to the Max Day, which is November 19th this year. Just go to the link below to make your donation. Your donations can help us earn extra door prizes through GiveMN! We are also pleased to announce that Security State Bank of Marine and The Anton Group, the school’s accounting firm, will both be matching donations up to $500!
