Support P.S. 56 Today for the 2025-2026 School Year

📚 Why Your Support Matters

Did you know: the PTA spends approximately $650 on each student for enrichment and programs?

Funding received from the Department of Education doesn’t cover enough to give students a full academic experience — but the PTA & grants do:

🎨 Art & 🎵 Music Enrichment
📖 Tutoring & Academic Support
🌎 Spanish Language Instruction
🚌 Field Trips & Graduation Celebrations
🧼 Cleaning Supplies, Classroom Materials & More

$140,000 – This is our fundraising goal for the year! This is the critical amount needed to bridge the gap in DOE funding and the costs of our programs, which we aim to raise through your support of this campaign, fundraising events, and grants.

🎉 Double Your Impact Now! Your Gift Will Be Matched

Thanks to a generous matching donor, every $5,000 raised unlocks an additional $5,000 — up to $40,000 total.

To keep programs running all year, help us unlock the full match by November 1st!

💵 How Much Should I Give?
