Parents for Carpenter (PFC) is the fundraising arm of Carpenter Community Charter, a public school with over 1,000 TK through 5th grade students. PFC is a non-profit volunteer organization that was formed in 1986 by a group of enthusiastic parents for the sole purpose of raising funds to support Carpenter Community Charter. PFC is dedicated to endowing programs that have been curtailed due to federal, state and local budget limits. Through its ongoing fundraising programs, Parents for Carpenter provides all Carpenter students with enrichment programs not funded by LAUSD such as music, physical education, dance, science lab, art and media lab education. PFC also funds classroom downsizing, aides for our teachers and administration, educational materials, technology upgrades and beautification/site improvements.
