Happy Monday, APG Community! Please take a moment to read our November 14 PTSA Newsletter. Our Newsletter updates are provided for all our families and staff to stay informed and engaged with our APG school community. Check our daily updates on our Website, Instagram and Facebook pages, as well as weekly updates to our school Calendar. The PTSA has got you covered!
1. Donate, donate, donate!
We need YOUR help as we are falling behind in getting donations for our school. We’ve only raised $27,000 so far and have quite a way to go to reach our goal of $150,000. Please visit our FUNDRAISING PAGE and donate today. We’d love to see EVERY APG FAMILY contribute any amount to support our school. Thank you!
2. Three APG Fundraisers partnering with local businesses
a. 11/14 – 12/9: Black Bird Bookstore, ONLINE HERE; use code ‘APG2022’ in the text box labeled “add a gift message” at checkout webpage. Please share with all your family, friends and neighbors – anyone can shop and use the code online.
b. 12/10 – 12/18: Sports Basement Holiday Shopping Event IN-STORE or ONLINE [FLIER] Sign up to be a Basementeer and choose AP Giannini as the charity recipient of school donations. You’ll get 20% off items at Sports Basement and we get donations to our school.
c. Ongoing, every Sunday at the 37th Avenue Farmer’s Market: visit two booths – Pure Cane Sugarcane Juice and Kunugi Noodle – run by APG families and mention “AP Giannini” to have proceeds donated to our school.
