Year End Giving Pool for Teachers & Staff - thru Sun June 22

As the end of year approaches, we are collecting funds for the teacher and staff gifts to show appreciation to all the amazing educators in our children’s lives.

In the spirit of togetherness, the PTA and Class Leads at PS20 are inviting families to join in contributing towards a monetary class gift for teachers and staff of PS20.

Donations will be accepted via https://bit.ly/ps20givingpool through Sunday, June 22nd, 2025.

The PTA will then distribute the gifts on behalf of the PS20 community to every classroom & cluster teacher and non-instructional staff individually, such as:
* Main office administration
* Support & related services providers (nurse, therapists, counselors, etc.)
* DOE school aides & PTA assistants
* Facilities & maintenance
* Kitchen staff
* Security & crossing guards

Electronic payments, cash or checks are also accepted - please reach out to PS20 PTA Board at board@ps20.org, or your class lead.

Please understand that contributing is totally optional and anonymous to those receiving. We hope this is a more equitable process for all. Families are welcome to show their appreciation independent of this effort.
