APC Fundraising Policy

One of the avenues which the Discovery Peak APC can use to help support the mission of the Discovery Peak Charter School is through fundraising facilitation. The Discovery Peak APC is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization and can offer tax deductible letters/receipts for donations to the organization.

It is the policy of the APC to not create fundraiser events, unless decided upon by current APC members, but instead to support the school through the hosting or facilitation of fundraising events. Current DPCS staff members may request the APC's support in hosting a fundraising event at anytime throughout the year. In order to request the APC's support the staff member must complete the APC Fundraising Request Form prior to a regularly scheduled APC meeting. Upon receipt of the form, the APC will request that the staff member(s) creating the event come to an APC meeting and answer any questions about the event and why the APC would need to be the host. The APC is responsible for notifying the requestor(s) of the APC's decision no later than 1 week after the attended meeting.

Stipulations for the APC hosting the fundraising event:

1. The APC will receive 10% of the proceeds of the event. There is no minimum and no maximum to the donation.

2. The APC will be invited to advertise at the hosted event. This can be done through a table, booth, or other means as determined by the APC.
