My name is Stephanie Payne and I’m part of the PTA at West Gates Elementary, located in Lindenhurst, NY. As you probably know, we work hard each year to build strong relationships among parents, teachers, and the school, all while creating engaging programs for our students.

Due to the shutdown of covid in the past, we have lost a lot of funds we use to help keep bringing programs to the school. You know how important the school experience is for students, which is why we are planning our Basket Auction.

Our basket auction is set to take place during February 2023. This event will allow us to raise enough money to keep bringing educational programs to our school and to help kids interested in learning! However, with the costs of programs, events, and supplies, we need to reach out to our school’s community and beyond for extra support to help!

I can’t wait to see how you can help make this year the best for our students!

Thank you and much appreciation!
