#Giving Tuesday 2022 at PRM
2022-11-29 00:00 - 23:59
We don’t have to tell you about all the reasons that Pleasant Ridge Montessori is so special. You see it every day in the cheerful smiles from our staff in the car line. In the pride in your child’s voice when they come home from school and tell you about a new work they completed. In the hands of the many volunteers who plan community building events, coach sports teams and chaperone field trips.

We do want to remind you, though, that it takes a village to keep a special place like PRM going. On this #GivingTuesday, we ask that you take a moment to reflect on the impact that PRM has had on you and your family. How will you keep it special for generations to come?

Here are 3 ways you can give back to PRM:

Give through your time and talents. Our school community thrives because of volunteers like YOU. Find out how to get involved, activate your voice and share your ideas by visiting https://prmrocks.org/give/.

Give through your donations. Every penny counts when we are supporting our children’s future. Give a one time donation or set up a recurring gift today here! Many employers will match your donation. Contact prsftres@gmail.com to set up a matching donation. You can also give back through no-cost fundraisers like these!

Give through your connections. Do you know of a business who might want to support all of the great things we are doing at PRM? We are looking for sponsors now – find out more info here or contact prsfpres@gmail.com.

Thank you for being a part of the PRM community and for being one of the many reasons PRM is so special!

All attendees will also be encouraged to participate in a question-and- answer session. Please consider attending this awesome event, and if possible, pre-register here (https://forms.gle/sso8qL8RibCYdEyu8)

IMPORTANT NOTE, this event will be taking place during our regularly scheduled monthly PTO meeting, therefore we are strongly encouraging everyone who typically attends PTO to instead attend the Town Hall and to show the new superintendent why PRM ROCKS! *And even if you have never attended a PTO meeting at PRM, this is still the perfect event for you – we truly hope to see you there!
