Support PS 116 through the 
Direct Appeal Campaign


Your generous donation will help continue

to make PS 116 as special as it is!


 

WHY A DIRECT APPEAL CAMPAIGN?

Our annual direct fundraising appeal to families is a tradition at PS 116, as it is for other high-performing New York City public schools. Parents/Guardians like us supplement public funding to provide their children with more resources and a broader range of learning opportunities.  

In fact, the PTA of PS 116 spends $868 annually per child!

 

PTA funds pay for programs that enhance our school and benefit every student, including: 

 

  • National Dance Institute and Dancing Classrooms Programs

  • Studio in a School Visual Arts Program

  • School Supplies for every Classroom, including Specialty Teachers and Special Education Service Providers

  • Author Visits with Meet the Writers

  • Training and Professional Development Support for Teachers

  • School Beautification Efforts

 

The cost of these and other critical programs are not covered by public funds and would not be possible without the support of PS 116 families. 

 

Whether you donate $16, $116, or our traditional request of $1,116, your participation ensures the PTA can provide critical support and enrichment opportunities to all of our children. 

 

We accept direct appeal donations year-round and donations are 100% tax-deductible.  In addition, we encourage families to look into corporate matching programs which can increase the impact of donations with no additional out-of-pocket cost.

NOTE ON CORPORATE MATCHING
Many corporations match donations made by employees.  If you work for a company that has a matching grant program, please be sure to notify your Human Resources Department whenever you donate money to our school. They will help you double your contribution to PS 116!
 
To find out if your company matches contributions, ask your HR Department.
 
Thank you for supporting our school!
