Impact Story: William Ramsay PTA
The William Ramsay Elementary PTA is an integral part of supporting the hard-working students, families and teachers of the wonderful William Ramsay Elementary. And 2022’s Spring2ACTion allowed us to be there for our school community even when prices were rising and budgets were squeezed. As a Title I school on the West End of Alexandria, there is plenty of need for resources, events and activities to help our students and teachers thrive. The funds raised from Alexandria’s Giving Day not only helped us start the 2022-2023 school year right with a back-to-school popsicle event, but it allowed for the real possibility of providing school supplies, classroom resources, fun family engagement events, and funding for field trips. Thanks to community support and donations, the PTA has hosted or supported the following events:
  • Family Movie Night
  • Literacy Night
  • Fun Fridays
  • Teacher Appreciation
  • Family Bingo Night
  • Trunk-Or-Treat
Your support goes a long way. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
Free Agent Fundraiser $500 Challenge
We are hosting our 2nd Spring2ACTion Prize Challenge to encourage nonprofits to engage Free Agent Fundraisers (FAFs) in their campaigns. In our Spring2ACTion 201 session, we highlighted the impact of FAFs and the role they play in securing more dollars and donors for your organization. In 2022, 28% of participating nonprofits had at least one FAF, we want to increase that to 40%! Organizations with FAFs raise 2x more than those who don't have them (on average).

Between now and April 7, your mission (if you choose to accept it) is to recruit at least one person/group to participate as a FAF (of course you can recruit more!) This FAF must be set up by April 7 to be eligible for the $500 drawing. The winner will be announced in our April 11 email. You could win $500 and your FAF will participate on a leaderboard dedicated to FAFs, with additional prizes based on the number of donors who give. Stay tuned for more details!
