Waters Pledge Drive 
October 26 - November 14, 2018

​HELP WATERS GROW!
Waters Elementary depends on the generous support of its families and community members to help fund many programs, projects and initiatives at the school. By donating to WatersToday, you directly help champion our students and school programs such as: 
  • Ecology 
  • Fine Arts
  • Lunch and Recess Supervision
  • Curriculum Materials
  • Science and Technology
  • ​Sports and Clubs

The suggested annual pledge is $750 per family.
Every dollar counts, no matter the amount! 
​Pledges may be made in one payment or as a recurring donation.​​

Prizes and Perks
  • Donate the first weekend of the pledge drive and be entered to win a chef's dinner for two at Gather.
  • Donate $1,000 or more and receive two Big Night tickets!

The Fine Print
  • All donations are tax deductible. Sponsorship packages' tax deductible portions are to be determined.
  • You will receive a tax letter reflecting your donation in late January or February.
  • For one-time donations, a check is appreciated in order to avoid credit card fees. Please make checks payable to "WatersToday" and drop it off at the school office or mail to:
