The Woodlin Elementary School PTA offers sponsorship opportunities for Montgomery County businesses to invest in the future of more than 500 wonderful children in your local community. Sponsorship of our valuable PTA programs provides educational enrichment for students, supplies for our teachers, and allows us to host community-building events and initiatives that support the diverse families of Woodlin Elementary and our greater Silver Spring community.
In particular, the challenges presented by social distancing protocols and remote-learning for this school year make your support even more crucial, and we understand that the economic hardship that has befallen many in our community makes your donation even more precious. With your help, the PTA can continue to offer after-school clubs, albeit virtually, to bolster the social and emotional health of our children and supplement the supplies needed by teachers to make our classrooms safe for return to in-person learning. In addition, while many of our events will need to be re-imagined according to pandemic safety protocols, we aim to maintain as many of our programs as possible. These include important cultural and educational celebrations like International Night and Black History Month and school-wide activities that foster inclusion and understanding of our diverse community, kindness and empathy, STEM learning, cultural arts, the broader world, and financial literacy.
Sponsorship Levels
Our tiered sponsorship packages include various levels of support for one, two, or all three of our main annual fundraising events – the “Dash of the Runaway Wizards” fun-run in October, the online Silent Auction, which will run for two weeks in February, and the outdoor Spring Fair in May 2021. The first two events will be held virtually, but we are hopeful that some form of the Spring Fair can take place in-person in the spring. Each of these events brings together hundreds of families and are a wonderful opportunity for expanding the visibility and positive name-recognition of your company.
The online auction in particular is a great way for businesses to get the word out about their products and services; the auction catalog is shared widely not only within the school community, but is often forwarded on to relatives, friends, and neighbors who all seek to support our school and, in turn, your business! If you cannot commit to one of the following sponsorship packages, we hope you will consider donating an item or service to our auction this year.
