The goal of the Duniway PTA is to promote the overall welfare of Duniway students and to encourage parent, teacher & community communication and involvement in our school. As part of the Oregon and the National PTA we also seek to be a powerful voice for all children; a relevant resource for families and communities and a strong advocate for the education and well being of every child. We strive to encourage every child to become lifelong learners and contributing members of our community.

Over the past several years, successful fundraising and conservative spending by the PTA has dramatically increased the balance in the Duniway PTA's reserve funds. In order to support our community and to adjust our reserve funds so that 40% of our 2009- 2010 operating budget is held in reserves, the Duniway PTA announces that $30,000 is available for projects or programs that support PTA goals.

Proposals

Each proposal should state the reason for the project or program and how that relates to the goals of Duniway's PTA. Each proposal must include an itemized budget indicating the cost for specific items. Additionally, proposals should clearly:

  • State when the project/program is to be put into effect, by whom and for how long.
  • Itemize the possible actions that need to be taken by PTA.
  • Designate who is responsible for carrying out the project/program.
  • List conditions, limitations and constraints that may be involved in carrying out the project/program.
  • Anticipate possible "side effects" and suggest procedures for dealing with them.
  • Spell out how to evaluate the effectiveness of the project/program.

Each proposal may request up to $30,000 in funds. Proposals may be emailed to pta_president@duniwayelementary.org. Paper proposals may be sent to the Duniway office.
