Fundraising Initiatives
Our fundraising goal is based on the cost of our current programming. PAC spends over $1200 per child per year ensuring that each student benefits from enrichment programs that go beyond what other SFUSD schools can offer their students. Funds raised go directly to Japanese Culture & Curriculum, Art, Music, PE, Technology and classroom support.
We raise funds for the Annual Fund/GIVE campaign throughout the year — the PayPal button below is always available!
When we gather for events, we also promote giving back to the community. Events conducted by the community where fundraising is involved include Walkathon (with Second Community), food sales at in-person events, such as Back to School Night and Performing Arts Night, our online Auction, and the Cherry Blossom Festival Udon Booth.
Also, our online store is always open, and proceeds are contributed to our annual budget as well!
give (annual fund)
This is direct giving and the easiest way to financially support our program. Simply write a check or PayPal a donation to Clarendon JBBP PAC. You can set up recurring donations (such as monthly) via PayPal. Check with your company, as many will match funds. (Not sure yours does? This tool may help.). Use the PayPal button below:
Walk-a-thon
The Walkathon is a fundraising and community-building event, held jointly with Second Community. It’s a great way for us to raise funds from family, friends, neighbors and community members. It’s also a lot of fun!
To volunteer to help with the next Walkathon, please contact pac@clarendonjbbp.org.
auction
In the sprint of past years, we’ve hosted an online auction. Everyone within JBBP plus friends and family near can go online and “shop” the multitude of items available—everything from sports packages, childcare options, wine, and gift certificates to restaurants, day spas & tourist attractions. There are even packages created by our own JBBP teachers and families.
We are always looking for great auction items, including timeshares and event tickets.
To volunteer for the auction committee, or to contribute a donation to be auctioned, contact pac@clarendonjbbp.org.
Info about how to buy items in the auction is posted in the Winter/Spring.
