Fundraising

McBride PAC fundraising efforts support a variety of school-based activities throughout the year including camps, dance and sport programs, presentations for parents, vital classroom supplies, literacy materials and more.

How can you contribute?

Direct Appeal

It’s easier than ever to donate to the PAC by sending us an etransfer at mcbrideelementary@gmail.com or to “E-Sir Richard McBride PAC” at School Cash Online. (If you donate at School Cash Online, we do not receive notification for a few weeks, so we’d love if it you send us an e-mail to let us know!)

Hot Lunch

Hot lunch is our biggest fundraiser! To order hot lunch, visit munchalunch.com.

With our traditional fundraising activities up in the air because of COVID-19, the PAC wanted to share with you a few other fundraising initiatives. Please support these if you are able. Your participation will ensure we can continue to support school activities and assist with the purchase of classroom supplies.

McBride has joined the Indigo FUNdraiser Program. 15% of eligible purchases made by McBride community families over the next year will be donated to the McBride PAC. Please visit McBride PAC Indigo FUNdraising Program to learn more.
