Why Do We Fundraise?

Fundraising is a crucial part of Glenridge and provides a significant portion of the school’s budget. It is a requirement for every family. The responsibilities to be met by each family are set by the Board based on the needs anticipated annually at the Spring Budget meeting. Detailed fundraising requirements are distributed at the beginning of each school year.

Fund A Need

Make a Contribution to Glenridge that will last for years to come!

At Glenridge, we continually strive to enhance our children's experiences in a safe and fun learning environment at school. This year, we are dedicating our FUND A NEED specifically to upgrades to our Glenridge Kitchen. Imagine kids making muffins, soft pretzels and pizzas.

Please help us reach our goal of $4,000 for an upgraded kitchen that will make all those fun cooking projects at Glenridge possible. Funds permitting, we will gratefully address other needed building repairs and improvements for which we are also raising funds through other avenues. Your direct donations (100% tax-deductible) make a difference in the education of our children.

We are extremely grateful for your participation and contributions! For more information and/or to donate to FUND A NEED, click the Donate Now button below or contact Jane Pak- at janepak08@gmail.com.

Annual Fund

Each spring we encourage all families and alumni to contribute to the annual fund. It is a confidential tax-deductible donation that ensures that we can operate the next year’s budget and keep tuition affordable even with unexpected financial ups and downs.

Raffle

There is an annual raffle. Each family is required to sell raffle tickets. Raffle is drawn in the spring.

Scrip

Each family must meet a fundraising goal, an amount that can be earned through a variety of means, including scrip. Scrip is a program that earns Glenridge a percentage of purchases you make at participating merchants, and Glenridge has a variety of types of scrip available for families to use.

Paper scrip for use in small grocery stores such as Rainbow or Good Life.
Gift cards / Plastic scrip for use in chain stores such as Gap, Home Depot, Starbucks, etc.
