This is our primary fundraiser (more than $100,000 raised annually!) and one of our biggest community-builders. It takes a community to organize each auction and the event itself is a lot of fun! Volunteer needs are many and extensive opportunities vary from standing committees to one-night-only volunteers. Contact Mark Reed at irvingtonauction2012@gmail.com or Dana Griggs at griggsd@windermere.com for more information or go to the Auction page.
With over 400 valuable coupons for organic food and dining, local arts and culture, green home, gardening, travel and recreation, Chinook Book users save hundreds of dollars while exploring our community and supporting local, sustainable businesses. Contact Jessica Sanders at jgnmsanders@gmail.com or go to the Chinook page for more details.
In conjunction with Portland Roasting, the PTA offers high-quality coffee for sale at competitive prices, with almost 50% coming back to our school. Contacts: Hether Dunn or Amy McFeeters-Krone, ptapres@irvingtonschool.com or go to the Coffee page for more information.
Scrip is an ongoing fundraising program that allows families to purchase gift cards or gift certificates for grocery stores, restaurants and other retailers. Our school receives a percentage of the sale (usually 4-10%). If you are interested in joining the Scrip team, contact Jason Blumklotz at funky1@europa.com or Kieron Dwyer at kd@kierondwyer.com or go to the SCRIP page for more information.
If you have a Safeway club card you can register it online to donate a percentage of your purchase to the school of your choice. Select “Irvington” as your beneficiary. You can sign up friends and family, too. Do it today!
On Saturday, October 1st from 4:00pm to 8:00pm, Grant Park will host the annual Octoberfest festival and fundraiser. Register until September 28th through the school and the Irvington PTA will receive nearly 50% of your registration fees.
Mobba is an online group coupon service that offers deals on restaurants and products in the Portland area. From October 1st through June 30th, Mobba.com will offer daily deals with a portion of the sales being returned to our school.
A long-standing tradition at Irvington, Spaghetti Dinner is more than just good food — the opportunity to relax and socialize with others in the school community clearly adds to its popularity! Volunteers are needed to organize, set up the dinner, and help clean up. Contact Rachel Carlson at rachelabra@msn.com or Dianne Lechner at dklechner@comcast.net.
Irvington parents coordinate a neighborhood full of single- and multi-family garage sales each year in June. Participants pay a fee to receive advertising and signage for their sale and to be included on the map. Volunteers are needed to promote the sale, process registrations, solicit advertising, distribute signage and create the map. Contact Melissa Messer at melissa@madronemodern.com.
