PTO Fall Fundraiser


Our annual fundraising campaign is here!


It’s time for the Edgewood PTO Fall Fundraiser! There’s no fun run or candy sale, no wrapping paper to buy or sponsorships to secure… just a simple request to help support our school community with a one-time donation.


All fundraising dollars go directly to our school community and support the following:


  • Events (Back to School Picnic, Trunk or Treat, Skate Night, School Dance, Buddy Breakfasts)

  • Teacher, Student and Family Community Support (Classroom expenses, class trip support, assemblies, landscaping, Sunshine Fund, Art & Literacy Fair, Field Day, Cub clubs)

  • Appreciation (Back to school Luncheon, Specialty Appreciation, Welcome Back and End of Year Luncheons, Teacher/Staff gifts)

  • Special school events (Book Fair, Holiday shop, new family picnic)

  • Capital Projects (Edgewood Café, Kayden’s Garden, Reading Room)


Envelopes went home last week or you can donate online by clicking here.


Additionally, we are a registered 501(c)(3). If you are interested in utilizing your company’s matching gift program and you would like to use Edgewood’s PTO as a recipient, please contact us by emailing us here.


Special thanks to Ciocca Chevy of Princeton who donated $1,000 to our PTO as a back to school program incentive!
