Willard Fund Giving Month 2025: One Month, Big Impact!
Get ready for Willard Fund Giving Month in October 2025.
Each year, the PTA looks for new ways to fund the $100,000+ support it contributes for these essential programs. This October we celebrate with a one-month giving event to support essential programs at Willard Middle School and make a lasting difference in the lives of our students and teachers.
While fundraising events take place annually, donations to the Willard Fund are welcome year-round. Every contribution goes directly to the PTA to enhance student experiences and strengthen Willard programs.
Let’s make the 2025-6 school year unforgettable for the Willard community!
