We Need Your Help to Keep the Fun & Enrichment Going

Right now, only 38% of Cottage Lake students have participated in our PTA fundraiser.

Last year, 53% of students participated, and our community raised $25,573. This year, we’ve raised $11,875 toward our $35,000 goal.

At our current rate of participation, we are not on track to reach our goal—and we need more families to participate.

It’s not about how much you give. It’s about everyone pitching in.

Even a small donation makes a difference when more of our Cottage Lake families participate. Our goal is to have every family who is able contribute something so that we can continue providing enrichment and support for our students.

The PTA funds opportunities including:

🎭 Missoula Children’s Theatre
🎨 Art Docent — $5,000
🎪 Carnival
👻 Monster Mash
🚌 Field Trips — $5,000
💡 Teacher Grants — $5,000
🎁 Toymaker — $6,500
🌿 Nature Vision — $2,000
⚾ Athletics & Clubs — $2,000
🔬 STEAM Fair — $800

These programs are funded by the PTA. The school district does not pay for them. They are experiences and resources that enrich the school year for our students, made possible because our Cottage Lake community supports them.

If you haven’t donated yet, please consider making a contribution today—whatever amount works for your family.

And if you’ve already given, thank you! Please help us spread the word by reaching out to family and friends who may want to support Cottage Lake students, too.

Let’s get more families participating and keep these opportunities available for our kids.

Our goal is $35,000. Every family. Every contribution. Every student benefits. Please register and donate here:CottageLakePTA.GiveBacks.com

What Does the PTA Do?

The Cottage Lake Elementary PTA is a 501(c)3 non-profit made up of parents, teachers, and community members working to make every child's potential a reality by engaging and empowering families and communities. While we’re an independent organization, we work closely alongside the school to support students, families, and staff.

The PTA helps fill funding gaps to make sure our kids have what they need—and goes beyond that to provide the ‘extras’ that make school special, from enrichment programs to community events.
