The 100% Homestead School Fundraiser is live now!
February 5 – February 19
How does it work?
This fundraiser does not require you to sell anything to friends OR bid on items you don’t need! All you have to do is donate what you can to help support our school!
Our Goal
Everyone’s participation is critical in order to continue to provide the best possible experience for our students. This year we are aiming to raise $25,000. We know that this past year has been especially hard for all of us, but we still need support from each and everyone one of you. Based on our goal, we are suggesting a donation of at least $100 per student; but we will be so appreciative of any amount you are able to give!
Every single dollar and every single family counts!
How do you donate?
Donations are tax deductible to the extent allowed by law and can be made by check payable to Homestead Elementary PTCO (mailed or dropped off at the school’s front office) OR online at https://100-homestead-2021.cheddarup.com
- Each participating student will be entered to win a Homestead baseball hat and sticker (2 winners per grade).
- The class who raises the most will win a pizza party.
- If we meet our goal of $25,000 the entire school will win a pajama movie day.
- Top earning student will win the chance to decorate Mr. Hardy’s office (with a friend) with balloons and streamers!
- The top three donor families will win a reserved parking spot in our front parking lot.
Keep an eye out for communication from our PTCO team throughout the campaign. And if you have any questions please contact our PTCO fundraisers at homesteadptcovp@gmail.com.
Thank you!

There will be boxes in the front and back parking lots during drop-off the week of September 14th-18th for your donations.

Please sign up to volunteer to help with the Homestead Community Food and Clothing Drive the week of September 14th-18th. Due to Covid-related restrictions, we will not be able to drop the food and clothing off in the school this year.
