Help Marguerita Families in Need

Over the last few years, Marguerita PTA has held a Pennies for Presents collection in December to help Marguerita families in need. Due to Covid-19 restrictions this year, we will be holding a "virtual" Pennies for Presents.  

We will be collecting funds through December 9 to partner with the non-profit group Catalyst SGV to provide assistance to Marguerita HOPE and STAR families this holiday season. STAR, or the Students at Risk program, serves foster youth, students on probation, refugees and military students, and the HOPE program stands for Homeless and Parent Engagement.

Marguerita has 22 students in these programs, and we hope to raise a total of $550 to help them.

These donations go directly to aid these specific students and are separate from PTA funds and programs. Any voluntary donation would be greatly appreciated. Although normally even pennies and loose change will help, because we can only accept online donations with credit cards this year, we ask that donations start at $5.

Thank you for your kindness and generosity.

Alhambra Unified School District is participating in a special meal program, Seamless Summer Option, during the 2020-2021 school year. Families continue to receive breakfast, lunch, and supper at NO COST. We do require that families complete the "Alternate Income Form" for additional District funding that supports our students. You only need to complete one form per family. Include all members of your house in the household count and select the household income range. We are urging you to complete the Alternate Income Form by December 31st.

Dance-A-Thon Fundraising Results and Prize Winners

Thank you Huskies for a job well done at the Dance-A-thon! Although we were not able to reach our fundraising goal for this event, the National PTA grant award, Cook's Night Out fundraisers, and other donations are keeping us on track (if not better!) with our budget.

Congratulations to all the Dance-A-Thon prize winners! Your support is making a difference!
