Darby Dolphin Drive is PTA’s most crucial fundraiser. Darby PTA sponsors or pays for most of the programs and services at Darby that otherwise would not be available to our students. See some of the benefits provided by PTA funding in the chart below.

During the Darby Dolphin Drive, we ask our Darby families for financial assistance to support our school and help fund the equipment, programs and services that immensely enrich our children’s educational experience. 100% of your donation will go towards these efforts.

Unfortunately, without your financial assistance, these programs will be lost. If we are not able to raise enough funds to support these programs and services, our students are at risk of losing valuable resources this year.

Darby, along with other public schools in California, continues to face budget challenges that affect staffing, supplies and district-funded programs. Your donations will help PTA make up for the financial hardships within the state and school district.

Why do parents need to raise funds? If we don’t, our teachers won’t have enough paper or art supplies for the year. There will be no extra-curricular activities like assemblies, field trips, art, and class parties. The PTA will no longer be able to sponsor educational programs and social events for our students.

It’s only through the dedication of parents like you, that we are able to offer an exceptional experience for our children.

In order to reach our goal, we would need a donation of $100-$200 per student for the year. Please donate whatever fits your family budget. A donation in any amount helps tremendously.

All donations are 100% tax-deductible to the extent of the law.
