The Gift Wrap Sale is Coming!
Our annual Mar Vista School gift wrap sale is coming soon!
Please encourage your family, friends and co-workers to purchase the high quality wrapping paper, gifts and chocolates from your catalogs.
Remember, our school earns 50% of the sale price of every item sold. Last year this fund raiser earned over $24,000, which helped support many extra programs at Mar Vista such as computer lab, art and music programs, technology instructors, playground improvements and more!
In addition, all children receive prizes for submitting orders of any size. Orders and prizes will be delivered to the school mid November
(right before Thanksgiving)
Best regards,
The Gift-Wrap Committee ELSA SHEKELLE

PHON-A-THON
Calling All Pledges!
Help ring in the new school year!The 21st Annual MVSEG Phon-a-Thon

Thursday Sept. 18th

This year, the MVSEG (Mar Vista School Enrichment Group) is challenged to raise $244,810 to fund the enrichment programs that are planned for the year.
These funds support more than 12 programs that are 100% dedicated to enriching our children’s lives.
These programs, which include art, music, computers, science, PE and field trips, provide our children with countless hours of hands-on learning experiences that go above and beyond any textbook.
Without the support of parents and the community, these programs will not happen.
The Phon-a-Thon is a critical part of our annual fundraising and is expected to generate $70,000 of the funds needed.

Check here to see if your company has a Gift Matching Program. |
Please help us reach that goal by contributing as generously as you are able. All donations are tax-deductible. Also, be sure to check with grandparents, local businesses and your employer to see if they will match your donation with their own tax-deductible donation. Every dollar makes a difference!
