Fundraising
Through our fundraising efforts, Fairway Elementary PTO supports academic enrichment programs and capital improvements that impact every subject and every grade level in the school. In addition, we host many special activities to promote school spirit and a sense of community among Fairway’s families.
The Great Pumpkin Fun Run
Each fall, students collect donations for the Fairway PTO and take part in the Great Pumpkin Fun Run! This festive event features obstacles, autumn spirit, and plenty of friendly competition. It’s our BIG fall FUNdraiser—and a highlight of the season!
Glow Bingo
A fun-filled evening of bingo—glow-in-the-dark style! Families are invited to play rounds of bingo under black lights with glowing gear and prizes. It’s a high-energy night of games, laughter, and community, perfect for kids and parents alike. Proceeds from tickets, concessions, and glowing gear sold will go directly to Fairway's PTO!
Adults-Only Fundraiser
Each Spring, the PTO hosts a special adults-only fundraiser off-site—always a night to remember! Past events have included Trivia Night, Dueling Pianos, and fun themed parties. It’s a great chance to enjoy a night out, connect with other parents, and support our school. Funds are raised through ticket sales, raffles, auctions, and more—all while having an amazing time!
