Giving Tuesday is a global generosity movement that was established in 2012 as a simple idea: to encourage people to do good. Use this year's Giving Tuesday to support Pathfinder K-8! These funds will allow us to directly support students, staff, and families.

This year, we plan to invest over $124K in programs and resources that touch every corner of our school. From classroom support, our specials (Art, Music, Library, Garden and PE), essential supplies, to playground supervisors who keep our students safe. These funds play a critical role in ensuring our children thrive both inside and outside the classroom. We strive to enrich the student experience beyond academics.

A large portion of our budget also supports events that bring our community together—like the Harvest Festival, Science Fair, graduation, and dances. In addition, PTSA covers key expenses such as equity support, staff appreciation, after-school program and field trip scholarships. We also cover overhead costs such as insurance and bookkeeping. You can learn more about our operating budget here.

Double Your Impact with Corporate Matching

Many employers will match your donation to Pathfinder PTSA, whether it’s a Move-a-Thon pledge, a Direct Give contribution, or both. Pathfinder PTSA is a registered 501(c)(3), so if your employer offers a matching program, your gift could be doubled, making an even bigger difference for our students and programs. Check with your HR department to see if your company participates—it’s an easy way to maximize your impact!

Support Pathfinder and the programs that make our school magic!

A link to Givebacks will be added closer to the date, or you can drop off donations at the PTSA box at the school front office.
