More info about Just Parties
WHAT: Just Parties! is a fundraising program for the Greene PTA. All of the money raised from Just Parties! ticket sales goes to support the amazing programs, events, and classroom supplies at Greene. We appreciate your support!
WHO: Everyone should “Buy” a ticket to attend a Just Parties or two (or more)! Enjoy yourself at one of the many Just Parties! FUNdraisers we have planned. You’re invited! Stay tuned to ParentSquare for more information and we hope to see you at this year’s amazing Just Parties!
WHY JUST PARTIES?: There is a long history of this name – going back at least to 2012. PTAs in Palo Alto are able to host many ways to raise money for their school and PTA. We choose to host parties and get-togethers because we are big believers in spending time together to strengthen our community. Hence, the name “Just Parties”, and – it has stuck!
Volunteer to host a Fundraising Party! All of the money raised from ticket sales goes to support the amazing PTA programs at Greene.
Create a Fundraising Party with others!
- Come up with a party idea and ask friends or your Student’s classmates’ parents to host with you. For each Party, parents pick the theme, suggest a few dates and times,, and all of their own details — this planning and hosting process is another wonderful way to build friendships. Fundraising Parties have ranged from camping trips to movie nights to afternoon baking — and we are always looking for new ideas.
- Divide the responsibilities and any costs of the party among yourselves.
- Decide on a location: a family’s home or an outside venue.
- Come up with a date, a minimum and maximum party size.
Join a current Fundraising Party!
Want to help but aren’t sure about taking the lead? There are a number of long-standing parties that happen every year, and current hosts are always open to new hosts joining the team to keep the tradition alive. It’s a great way for new parents to learn from veteran parents.
