We need you to be one of the 200 volunteers it takes every year to do this. There are opportunities for you to be involved that match your interests, talents and any amount of time you can volunteer.

Additional Fundraising Opportunities:

Community and Steele Family Business Sponsorships
Community businesses and Steele Family Businesses have the opportunity to sponsor the school in many ways.  In the 2021-2022 school year, our PTA raised $25,000 from the generosity of our sponsors. Interested in a business sponsorship? Contact Brandi Krause at steelevpfundraising@gmail.com.
Steele Dines Out: Local restaurants donate 15%-20% of proceeds collected at the restaurant the night of the fundraiser. Steele made close to $5,000 in prior years with Steele Dines Out (SDO) fundraisers! If you know a restaurant that is interested in participating, contact Carrie Denham at carrie.lewis.denham@gmail.com.
Corporate Matching Programs
In the 2021-2022 school year we secured over $15,000 additional dollars through corporate matching. This year we’d like to ramp those dollars up significantly! Please take a moment to inquire with your company about their corporate matching programs. Many times corporations donate dollars for your volunteer hours, others will match a % of the amount you give. Let’s not leave money on the table that can go toward improving our children’s educational experience.
