Thank you for clicking this Donation link! Everything we do for the kiddos costs money, so as a PTA, we will often ask for your participation in our fundraising efforts. We are steadfast in our investment in making Delevan the best it can be for the kids, and that also includes fiscal transparency for our supporters. Never hesitate to reach out with questions and please join our meetings to get involved and add your voice!

Thank you for your investment in Delevan!

So, let’s talk fundraising! I know, I know, I know - be more of a PTA stereotype, why don’t you.

Last year, we topped our $138,000 Fundraising Goal by almost $20,000!! Our primary fundraiser, Koalathon, raised just over $101,000, which - in tandem with our other campaigns - allowed us to enact about $102,000 worth of ADDED enhancement, enrichment, & programming to the Delevan student experience. The budget & fundraising goals for 2025-2026 have been created to keep this level of enhancement, but also to cover the expected, yearly funding gap between Delevan’s LAUSD Allocation & what the school wants to provide for the students. That gap for the 2024-2025 school year was $52,981 & included the Spanish & PE teachers, as well as learning software & teaching tools. 


This year, we anticipate a funding gap of about $60,000 that Delevan will ask us to cover in this fundraising year, making our fundraising goal this school year $152,000, $132,000 of that being parent/caregiver investment, which is $264 per student at 500 students. Our fundraising efforts begin in the Fall for a calendar year of expenses, so this school year’s fundraising efforts are for our expenses for Jan 2026 - Dec 2026."
