Our No Hassle Fundraiser is still going strong — and we’re getting closer to our goal each day! This is the easiest way to support Baldwin: no selling, no events, just giving directly to make a real impact on our students and teachers.

Our goal: $20,000
We’d love to see $100 per family, but we know not everyone can give that amount. Truly—no amount is too small or too large. Every dollar counts and goes directly to programs, events, and resources that benefit our Baldwin students and teachers (teacher reimbursement program, BLAST dyslexia materials, professional development, family programming such as BINGO Night, and so much more)!

Weekly Friday Drawings
Each Friday in October, we’ll draw a prize winner from that week’s donors—so the sooner you give, the more chances you’ll have to win!

Donate today, and share this fundraiser with grandparents, family, friends, and even employers who may want to support our school community.

Together, we can reach $20,000 and show our Bobcat pride!

Thank you for your generosity,
Baldwin Elementary PTA

Sprout School Supply Co-Coordinator

January 2026 - January 2028+

Our current coordinator will be leaving Baldwin in May 2027. Lindsay Calvert has been our fabulous Sprout guru the last couple of years and has graciously offered to train a replacement from Jan 2026 - May 2027. Then you would assume responsibilities - hopefully until your child graduates Baldwin. This rewarding and behind the scenes role is great for people with Pre-K to 2nd graders. Email president@baldwinpta.org / schoolsupplies@baldwinpta.org for more info.
