Helpers needed for November Fundraising Campaign

November is when the PTA runs its Direct Appeal campaign to raise funds from parents (Walkathon in the spring will raise funds from the community). These funds enable the PTA to provide its programs and support all Cherry Chase students through teacher funds, field trips, technology, events, and more.

We need 2+ parents to help the team run the campaign and class competition this year. Any amount of help is welcome and all tasks can be done outside working hours.

Please reach out to treasurer@cherrychasepta.org.

We also welcome your donations now through our website.  

Girls on The Run Needs Coaches

Join our fun team and help girls unleash their power and potential! Girls on the Run has been inspiring 3rd through 5th grade girls at Cherry Chase since 2015 and has become one of the largest teams in Silicon Valley.

In order to offer this program to as many girls as possible we need one more coach! You DO NOT need to be a runner. You just need a positive attitude, a desire to be a role model and time to help out. Girls on the Run will meet after school on Mondays and Wednesdays from March 4 until May 18.

For more information text or call Coach Jodi at 408-239-7285 or learn more about the program online at GOTRSV.org.
