A big thank you for the generosity of donations to buy grocery gift cards for our sister school before Thanksgiving, winter, and mid-winter breaks. It is always HUGELY appreciated!! Let’s do it again for spring break.
Help us meet our goal of purchasing 100 $25 gift cards to be given out before kids are home for a week over mid-winter break without the meals they rely on daily when they are in school.
Bryant PTSA Families in Need program is collecting funds to purchase grocery cards to be donated to our sister school. Our sister school is a Title 1 elementary school in the Seattle public school district in which more than 80% of current students are from low income families. Enrollment has increased 120% since last year so the need is even greater. With the increase in grocery prices and a week off for mid-winter break, families need extra assistance buying food. Please consider supporting local students at our sister school. Your donation will be used to purchase grocery cards. The deadline for this donation drive is 4/9.
Thank you for those who have it in their budget and heart to contribute!
