FUNDRAISING
YOUR FINANCIAL SUPPORT IS IMPORTANT!
Each year, the PTO helps to improve the educational experience for students at Bennett-Hemenway Elementary School by sponsoring enrichment programs, providing materials not currently funded by the existing school budget, and holding community-building events. To ensure that we can continue to provide these programs, we are asking for you to SUPPORT BEN HEM by supporting the PTO.
On this page are a number of ways that you can give to the Ben-Hem PTO to contribute toward the annual budget. For any questions on these opportunities or suggestions for new fundraising or donation drive ideas, please reach out to Ben Hem's PTO board at theboard@benhempto.org.
The Bennett-Hemenway PTO is a 501(c)(3). Your financial contribution is tax-deductible.
