Dear Neighbors,

We are a group of dedicated parents writing on behalf of P.S. 34 Oliver H. Perry PTA to invite you to be a part of our upcoming Winter Silent Auction. This year, our auction will be held online from Sunday, December 1st – Sunday, December 8th. Our school is known for its history of academic achievement and wide range of enrichment and arts programs. But, we are most proud of its warm and welcoming approach to education and community involvement. We are a small but mighty elementary school in large part thanks to the incredible engagement of local community and business leaders like you. 

Due to massive DOE budget cuts, supporting local schools is more crucial than ever. The success of this auction is due solely to generous in‐kind donors like you who support our mission by providing items or services for our fundraiser. All of the proceeds from this fundraiser will be invested in services and programming for our 400+ elementary school students, including Theater, Music, Dance, Chess, Art and STEM. Your support for these enrichments will directly impact the lives of hundreds of children and strengthen our community as a whole.  

Your donation provides a wonderful opportunity for you to gain exposure to potential customers while supporting a worthwhile cause. With your donation, your business will be recognized and promoted online through our social media channels and popular local parenting Facebook groups, which have thousands of members in and around the community. In addition, we will feature you on our silent auction website, and on any physical and digital marketing materials. In addition to this valuable marketing opportunity, we are a registered 501(c)(3) tax‐exempt non‐profit organization and your donation to this auction is tax deductible to the fullest extent under the law. 

We truly hope you will consider participating in this year’s auction.

If you are able to donate, please fill out the following form by Friday, November 22nd:

Thank you in advance for your time and generous donation. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at fundraising@ps34pta.org.

With gratitude,

The P.S. 34 PTA Fundraising Committee
