HOW WE FUNDRAISE

Opportunities to Give

MEMBERSHIP DRIVE

Pick a "level" you feel comfortable with and donate to SVMS PTA. Your donation includes a family membership to our PTA. The funds raised go towards helping our school with the programs and supplies it needs to ensure our children have all they need to make their middle school experience GREAT!

DIRECT DONATION DRIVE

DRIVE FOR SCHOOLS

The Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk generously support Santa Cruz County schools with the Drive for Schools Giveaway! The Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk contributes a grand prize of $25,000 and five other $1,000 prizes. Local businesses also pitch in, providing almost 100 additional prizes to entice ticket buyers.

Scotts Valley Middle School keeps 100% of our ticket sales*, so every single cent of every single ticket sold remains with the SVMS PTA.

*Minus online payment processing fees

COLOR RUN

The Color Run is an off-site event where students run a decorated track while being doused with cornstarch-based colored powder in every color of the rainbow! Support your child this September!

We work with local business to host dinner out nights, where we receive a portion of their sales. On occasion we may host a bake sale or other event.
