Tiger Walk Fundraising Has Begun!

March 27, 2023
WOW Tigers! Tiger Walk fundraising just started and we are already up to almost $2,000 toward our $13,000 goal! Incredible!! Remember that the first 50 students to donate are entered to win a raffle (dance classes at Ignite, gift certificates for Bear & Bee Used Books, Pasta Fresh ready-to-cook delicious pastas, and more!).
It is with funds from you that the PTSA is able to significantly help our teachers and students. Did you know that the PTSA grants $6,000 for teacher and staff needs throughout the year? Math games for 1st graders, $1000 in books for students at the Book Fair, supplies for the salmon tank, science enrichment, art supplies…the list goes on!
Know that all funds raised go straight back to help our kids thrive.  Check out the orange ‘Tiger Walk’ tab above!
Let’s keep the momentum going…all the way to $13,000 and beyond!

It’s here, it’s here!

Whoooo! Tiger Walk is here! You may have already received your Tiger Walk packet in backpack mail (and if not, it’s coming this week)! That means we are already on our way to earning $13,000 for the school and the countdown is ON until our light-it-up walk!

Although the information says donations open Friday, March 27th, donations are now LIVE!

The first 50 students who turn in donations will be entered into a raffle to win dance classes with Ignite Dance, Bear and Bee gift certificates, and more!
All the information is on our website: https://carnationptsa.org/tigerwalk2023/
