Maxwell Elementary PTA

Some families prefer not to sell items so we also offer the opportunity to make a direct donation to the PTA.  100% of the proceeds go to fund activities and programs of the PTA and the donation is tax deductible.  A tax donation letter will be provided to donors.  Checks can be made payable to Maxwell PTA.  Please include your child’s name and homeroom in the memo line for delivery of your tax letter.  Contact Allison Soult (allison.soult@gmail.com or 971-9628) for more information about Invest in Your Child.

You can now set up a payment plan for Invest in your Child through PayPal.  The first payment will occur when you set up the recurring donation and every month after for a total of 6 months.  To make a one-time donation, use the "Donate" button on the left side of the page.

$30 ($5/month for 6 months)	$60 ($10/month for 6 months)	$90 ($15/month for 6 months)
