On behalf of the Oakland Terrace Elementary School (OTES) PTA, we hope you can help support out 2020 Silent Auction. OTES serves 500 students in a diverse neighborhood straddling Silver Spring and Kensington, MD.

The OTES PTA organizes an annual Silent Auction. This year, the auction will be on April 17, 2020. It is our biggest fundraiser, bringing in more than 50% of the PTA's budget. We use funds raised to give after-school-activity scholarships to low-income families, to maintain an educational garden on school grounds, and to hold community events like International Night and Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service.

The auction is attended by 100 parents in the community and marketing materials are sent to over 500 families. Your donation would be advertised to this population as a supporter of the community.

We appreciate your consideration and any donation you can provide to our organization. I have attached a flyer with more information about the event, where to send a donation, and our Tax ID number (I can provide our IRS determination letter as well).
