Alcott PTG Annual Appeal

November 2024

Dear Alcott Family and Friends, 

Welcome to Alcott’s 2024-2025 Month of Giving! The Alcott PTG is a volunteer-driven organization committed to enriching the educational, cultural, and social opportunities for each Alcott student. The PTG runs a number of community traditions and events throughout the school year that are all made possible by your gifts to the Annual Appeal.

The Annual Appeal is the PTG’s largest fundraiser and is a one-time donation request from our parent community. Any amount you can contribute is greatly appreciated!

Examples of the impact of your gift include:

• $1250:  Average request to the Alcott Family Fund per quarter to provide financial assistance to those in need with school-related items such as backpacks, school pictures costs, and book fair purchases.

• $1000:  Current spend for one enrichment program per grade. Past examples include The Acton Discovery Museum: Force & Motion Workshop; That Poetry Guy: Writing Workshop; and Cultivating Curiosity: Rube Goldberg Design.

• $750: Average spend on quarterly student social events such as Apple Picking, Fall Family Picnic, end of year ice-cream social, etc.

• $250: Cost of staff appreciation events such as a coffee truck, catered lunch and/or a holiday gift for each staff member.

• $125: Amount the PTG spends annually per student for school experiences and classroom supplies.

Please “Give a Hoot” and donate today. We are so thankful for this collaboration. 

With gratitude, 

The Alcott PTG
