Revenue Sources

Funded Activites and Programs

The March auction is our single largest fundraising event of the year representing ~75% of our annual revenue. Local business and community members donate items and services that attendees of the auction then bid on raise money for the Irvington Elementary School PTA.

Pie Sale

Our annual October Pie Sale where PTA members sell pies to friends, neighbors, coworkers, etc. to raise money for the PTA.

Evergreen Sale

Our annual November sale of wreaths, garlands, centerpieces and more!  All locally sourced from Teufel Holly Farms, these fragrant, seasonal gifts can be hand delivered or even mailed direct to family, friends or business associates! 

Read-a-thon

Our annual read-a-thon where all the students work together read as many minutes as they can for a month sponsored by the Irvington Elementary community to raise money for the PTA and win a dance party for the students.

RaiseRight

RaiseRight allows you to individually purchase gift cards from over 750 vendors and a percentage of the gift card is then donated by the vendor to our PTA.  You can order e-cards (recommended – these can be used from an electronic wallet on the app on your phone for immediate use), or have physical cards from select vendors sent to your home (for a small shipping fee).  The cost of the card to you is the same (with a $0.15 transaction fee for a debit transaction), but a percentage (up to 18%!) of the amount of the card is donated to the PTA.
