Altadore School’s Direct Donation Campaign is Underway!
Instead of dragging parents through the usual fundraising chaos, the Altadore School Parents’ Association decided to switch things up! We created the Direct Donation Campaign, letting parents skip the hassle, and donate straight to the cause, so we can focus on building strong community spirit through diverse learning activities and opportunities beyond the standard curriculum.
No middleman, just pure support flowing straight to Altadore students, making life easier for parents and giving students the ultimate educational boost!
The Altadore School Parents' Association is a registered charity and provides tax receipts for your donations, and many families also take advantage of company matching programs to ensure even more support for our children!
