Our Direct Giving campaign is simple: We ask that you donate directly to the PTO to support the many needs of our school and students. The Sandpiper Elementary PTO is a 501(c)(3) non-profit that invests significant funds into our school each year, beyond the minimum funding provided by the state of Arizona.
The Sandpiper PTO asks families to make a contribution to the Direct Giving campaign in support of school-wide programs ranging from teacher requested materials such as Really Great Reading, support of our beautiful on-site garden, or school improvements such as the recent outdoor classroom addition and library remodel. Direct Giving proceeds also provide the funds necessary to give our Sandpiper teachers classroom and development support for items the district does not cover through teacher grants and allows the PTO to host community events including the Glow Party, Family Movie Nights, and Museo de Arte y Mas that aim to bring Sandpiper families together for free! Without your support during Direct Giving, these programs and events would not be possible year after year.
If your family is in a position to provide support, we hope you will consider making a donation by following the links below to the funding level of your choice. Participation in our community and contributions of all sizes are immensely appreciated. (Minimum suggested support is $50 per student)
Many companies offer a "corporate match" for personal donations made by their employees! If your company participates in a corporate match program, email us at ptosandpiper@gmail.com and we will help you complete the paperwork!
Sandpiper PTO is a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization. Your donation is tax deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law. Donation amounts will be confidential.
***This donation is NOT part of the Tax Credit!*** But it IS Tax Deductible!
Thank you for your support!
