Fundraising Update - Anoushka Tandon

As we reflect on the first part of the school year, we want to take a moment to simply say thank you. The generosity of our families and community continues to make a real difference at CVHS, and we are incredibly grateful for your support. 

We are proud to say that so far, we have raised about $52500 through Friends and Family Campaign, Corporate Match and Corporate Sponsorships..

Because of your donations, the PTO has been able to fund projects and resources that directly impact students and teachers every day.

This year, we provided

• Classroom supply stipends for 14 teachers, helping them purchase materials used by hundreds of students throughout the school year
• We also funded a new podcasting kit for the newspaper and broadcast program, giving students exciting opportunities to develop communication and media production skills. 
• In our science classrooms, PTO support has helped provide chemistry lab supplies and educational resources that enhance hands-on learning for every chemistry student.
• Your contributions have also improved the learning environment across campus. For example, PTO funds were used to purchase classroom AC units for rooms that needed additional cooling, helping create a more comfortable space for students and teachers to focus, learn, and succeed.
• We have also supported programs that bring our community together, including Parent-Teacher Night and student activities that help students build connections and create lasting memories.
• We have also supported various appreciation events and teacher/staff lunches.

If your employer offers a corporate matching gift program, we encourage you to take advantage of it. Many companies will match charitable donations made by their employees, allowing your gift to go even further. Companies such as Chevron, ExxonMobil, Shell, BP, ConocoPhillips, Microsoft, Google, Apple, JPMorgan Chase, and Bank of America are among those that may offer matching gift opportunities. A quick check with your Human Resources department could potentially double the impact of your contribution. 

In addition, many companies support educational initiatives through grants, sponsorships, volunteer programs, or project funding. Whether it's STEM and science initiatives, technology and journalism programs, robotics, college and career readiness, or other student enrichment opportunities, we would love to learn about any resources that may be available through your employer. If you know of a program or would like to help connect us with your company, please reach out to us.

Every donation, every volunteer hour, and every act of support reflects a shared commitment to our students. We are thankful for the trust you place in the PTO and proud of what we can accomplish together for our school community.

Please keep supporting us by donating through Friends and Family campaign!
