Fundraising

Without successful fundraising we would not be able to support Northwest the way we do. We appreciate any and all participation because all our funds come from donations and fundraisers. Scroll down to see why we fundraise and what fundraisers we do during the school year at Northwest Elementary.

Why do we fundraise?

We fundraise for 2 main reasons:
  1. Provide financial assistance for teacher and staff requests in an effort to support classrooms and the school. 
  2. Put on events during the school year to help provide a fun, exciting and enjoyable atmosphere for the Northwest Elementary community.
Our fundraisers have provided for the following:
  • Chromebooks
  • iPad Minis
  • Playground & PE Equipment
  • Reading Curriculum Materials
  • Bounce Back to School Night
  • Author Visits
  • Family Fun Nights 
  • Teacher Appreciation Gifts
  • Student Maker Space
  • And so much more!!!

Fundraisers

Jag Jog

What is the Jag Jog?  
The Jag Jog is a fundraiser in which families, friends, and neighbors pledge money to support our students as they participate in doing laps around the school yard.  Unlike traditional fundraisers, 100% of the proceeds from the Jag Jog will go directly to serve NW Elementary students and staff.  
​
The Jag Jog is an important event, bringing students together to achieve both personal and school-wide fitness and fundraising goals.  All students will participate and will receive a free t-shirt provided by the PTO. ​​

Ninja Warrior

This is one of the favorite fundraisers of the year. We have great success with student involvement and raising funds. So far we have raised enough to provide chromebooks for every 4th grader, iPad minis for K-3rd graders, curriculum books for the teachers, and a Maker Space for the students. This fundraiser is a pledge drive, but is 100% profit for NW PTO! 

Restaurant Nights

Skip the cooking and eat out to support Northwest! Watch for dates throughout the year...

Picture
Each month we partner with Chick-fil-A to encourage families to come together for supper. A percentage of the proceeds come back to the PTO. So stop in the 2nd Tuesday of each month from 5-8pm to see familiar faces and raise money for our kids!
We can earn up to 20% of the sales both in store and catering orders. Don't forget to fill out a form because the class with most participation gets free wiches and one student will win a $25 gift card!
(dates TBD)

 Meet up and give back at Texas Roadhouse! 10% of the total sales goes back to our school!
