Information About All of Our Fundraisers
This fall, Tyrone Elementary PTO wanted to spare families the burden of traditional fundraisers by having a Direct Donation Campaign instead.
By writing a one-time, tax-deductible check to the Tyrone Elementary PTO, you are ensuring that all of our children continue to benefit from the excellent programs and activities that our PTO has provided in the past along with some new ones. Our 2010-2011 projected expenses is $17,000

Please remember that 100% of your tax-deductible donation goes straight to work for our students. With your generous donations, the PTO will achieve the funding necessary to support our great programs.
