Welcome to the PTA Fundraising Blog page. Here is a brief overview of what you expect from the PTA this year. This year the PTA is taking a brand new approach to fundraising. This year we will NOT ask you or your child to sell anything all year. This year we will hold the following:

PRIMARY FUNDRAISERS: (make up over 90% of our net proceeds)
Direct Donation Drive: The direct donation drive will ask Fern Bluff families to make a one-time tax deductible contribution to the PTA. 100% of your contribution will benefit Fern Bluff Elementary.
Bobcat Bash and Silent Auction: This annual event is a tradition at Fern Bluff Elementary. The entire school comes together to put on an amazing carnival and silent auction.

SUPPORTING FUNDRAISERS: These fundraisers bring in less than 10% of our funds, but they also serve to provide other services and benefits to our Fern Bluff Elementary families.
Restaurant Nights: Restaurants donate a portion of what you spend back to the school.
Bobcat Spirit Store: Students and parents can purchase spirit items. All profits benefit FBE.
Snack Shack: Students and parents can purchase a snack after school. All profits benefit FBE.
Gift Cards: Parents can purchase gift cards to use as gifts for holidays, birthdays and teacher appreciation. A portion of the value of the gift card benefits FBE.
T-shirts: Students and parents can purchase Bobcat Spirit T's and all proceeds benefit FBE.
