Description

The Wardlaw-Hartridge Parents Association (WHPA) serves as a forum for communication and
cooperation between students, parents, faculty and staff of the Wardlaw-Hartridge School.  The WHPA
enhances the academic, cultural and social experiences of its students.  Through fundraising we have
supported a variety of endeavors such as assemblies, classroom enhancements and faculty training. 
We have also made significant contributions to capital campaigns as well as initiate a mini-grant program
for faculty.  Our goals include updating technology in the classrooms, supporting the school's efforts in
composting, recycling and sustainability and making a contribution towards the new Performing Arts
Center.


Our largest fundraiser of the year, The WHPA Annual Spring Affair, will be coming up on April 23rd, 2022
at the Wardlaw+Hartridge School in Edison, NJ. The event is attended by over 200 people and we raise
money through our silent auctions and raffle baskets. We hope that you will consider donating an item to
our raffle auction. A donation from you is sure to bring us success in our endeavor! Your generosity will
be published on our school’s website at www.whschool.org prior to our event, and in the ad journal that
will be distributed to all that attend. Additionally, further acknowledgement will be given if you include
brochures with your donation. The WHPA is a tax exempt organization (222-109-610/000).
