Fundraising Activities for 2022-2023
We ask for 100% parent participation which means volunteering, attending and/or spreading the word by inviting your friends, family and neighbors!
As a public charter school, Springwater receives only 80% of the State School Fund and little to no funds from other available District, State or Federal funds provided to other public schools and students. As a result, we operate with less funds than traditional public schools, so Springwater relies on fundraising efforts to help cover its basic operational costs such as our mortgage, programming components, staff salaries, classroom supplies, etc. Springwater is unable to remain open without the fundraising efforts of its families.
Our Fundraising Goal is $80,000 this year. We can do it!
