There are many ways that you can get involved and help us!
- Support our events: Keep up-to-date with our events, published in the school newsletter and promoted via the WhatsApp groups for the years and with posters around the school. Share your talents and time whenever you can: baking cakes, donating clothes, volunteering your time at our events… to mention but a few. And most of all, join in the fun and be part of our great community!
- Corporate Matching: Does your company offer corporate matching donation opportunities for employees doing charity work? If you’re not sure, please check if this is available at your place of work and let us know - we will help you find events where we can work together! We provided a list of companies that are known for offering corporate matching, please find it below.
- Donations: If you can’t find the time to get involved, but still want to support us, you can always make a cash donation to the SA or purchase raffle tickets ahead of events, purchase our merchandise when available or donate to our JustGiving page (https://www.justgiving.com/campaign/stteresascatholicacademy).
- Fundraising: If you would like to do some family fundraising and link it to the JustGiving site (https://www.justgiving.com/campaign/stteresascatholicacademy) that would be awesome! Let us know about your initiative and share some pictures with us (schoolassociation@outlook.com) so we can share them via the newsletter.
- Fundraising Challenges: Join our fundraising challenges, like the February half term "Get Active with St Teresa's". Further details will be available soon. Watch this space!
- Shopping online: Shopping via AmazonSmile will donate up to 0.5% of the cost of eligible purchases to us. Just register St Teresa's School Pta as your charity and remember to access Amazon via the Smile webpage https://smile.amazon.co.uk/ or link our charity to your Amazon App (you will need the latest version of the app). Please go to settings, click AmazonSmile and select St Teresa's School Pta as your charity.
Lots of other sites such as John Lewis, Argos, Sainsburys, ASOS and many more donate via Easyfundraising (https://www.easyfundraising.org.uk/).
