Fall Pledge Drive

Micheltorena relies on donations from all our families to help our school thrive.

Fall Pledge Drive is our most important fundraiser of the year and we are counting on you to invest in our school!

There is a gap between the funding our school receives and the education that all of our students deserve. This October, Friends of Micheltorena (FOM) is holding our Fall Pledge Drive. We’re collecting donations from our school community so that we can fund key staff positions and provide essential school programs for all our students.

You can also Venmo us @payFOM or text “MICHEL” to 44321

Here’s where your donation will go:

We need to raise $150,000 this fall towards our ultimate goal of $250,000 this year!
