How We Raise Money

How We Raise Money

Like most PTAs, the majority of our funds are raised through the events that we run. In 2020 and 2021, unfortunately most of our fundraising activity was curtailed due to restrictions imposed as a result of the covid pandemic, but as of January 2022, we are thrilled to be back with our calender of events.

Whilst our fundraising varies from year to year, we do have some regular events in the calendar, including our ever-popular Hollyberry Fayre, Spooky Disco, Summer Fayre, Non-Uniform days and Fun Runs. Other events we are looking into include Cinema Nights, Race Night, Christmas Cards, Chocolate Bingo, Sponsored Walks to name but a few

Volunteers

We always welcome any help parents and carers can give us. There are lots of events during the year, both large and small, and their success relies on the assistance of volunteers! If you would like to be involved in anyway, please do not hesitate in contacting us.

PTA DONATION SCHEME

We have been thinking creatively on how certain fundraising events can go ahead since the start of the pandemic, but alas most of our usual events cannot take place in the same way.  Therefore, we have launched the PTA DONATION SCHEME. The donation scheme is voluntary, and we are grateful for any contribution towards our PTA charity that you can give.

For example, if we received 200 donations of £5 we would raise £1,000. If this was once a month, we would raise £12,000 in a year

You can find this scheme on the School gateway App

Give As You Live

Give as you Live is an affiliate scheme. It works in much the same way as a comparison site, with the retailer paying a commission for sending people to their sites – only in this case the commission is passed on to a charity of the consumer's choice, in this case Heathlands PTA.
