Fundraising
Fundraising is an important element of our Providence Nursery School cooperative. The money raised supports extra programs like music class, replaces worn toys and equipment, and helps teachers to purchase supplies.
You can help our fundraising efforts by attending events, and also by volunteering your time. Special events are a great opportunity to meet and hang out with other families in our PNS community. Most of us have chosen PNS because it is a co-op, and fundraising events are another chance to participate and help in the educational mission of our school. If you are interested in volunteering to help with any of our fun events, please contact our Fundraising Chairs.
