Dear Friend of Dawes Elementary School,

 We are excited to announce that the week of May 9, Dawes Elementary School PTA will be hosting our annual Silent Auction virtually - Dawes Fest! This has been a hugely popular and successful event for our community, in large part due to generous contributions from businesses like yours. Our fundraiser will be virtual to ensure everyone can participate and your support means more than ever! Dawes is excited to share all funds raised with PEP (PTA Equity Project)!

 As our school’s biggest fundraiser, and in partnership with PEP, Dawes Fest provides school enrichment programs and scholarships so that all students, regardless of family income, and can participate fully in the community. To learn about PEP, visit: https://ptaequityproject.com/about
