Fundraising

Fundraising at CPI

Fundraising is vitally important to the school. It provides funds for “extra” toys and equipment for the children, covers the cost of capital improvements, and helps to meet unexpected expenses and emergencies. As a small cooperative preschool, CPI depends on fundraising to provide enrichment to the curriculum and to keep our facilities in good shape. The Co-Directors of Fundraising work hard to plan exciting fundraisers each year. We hope to keep the FUN in Fundraising! Your support and participation is genuinely appreciated and greatly helps our school. While we don’t require member participation in all of the events, there is certainly something for everyone!  For more information please email our fundraising team by clicking here.

You can also read about current fundraising projects in the Chalkboard Newsletter.

CPI is a 501(c)(3) non-profit. Our tax ID is 54-0881009.

Holiday Shop/Pancake Breakfast

Holiday Shop: Every December we set up a little shop and allow the children to do their holiday “shopping” for anyone and everyone on their list! We have items for parents, grandparents, siblings, family, friends, and yes….even pets! The kids feel immense pride choosing their own gifts to give, and often have a hard time waiting to tell you what’s inside (but that’s part of the fun, right?). Parent volunteers help work in the Holiday Shop, guiding children through their choices and helping them wrap their new treasures!

Pancake Breakfast: We love to start Winter Break with fun and festivities! Our amazing teachers and staff donate their time to spend an extra special morning with students- cooking pancakes, creating keepsake art and crafts, dancing in pajamas, and playing! 100% of proceeds go back to the school. This is a CPI tradition and one of our absolute favorites!

Original Artwork

Later in the year, CPI students work on an original art project. Keep a look out in your child’s tote bag for a magnet depicting their work. These magnets are not free, but a fundraiser for our school. There are also many other items you can purchase just in time for Mothers Day! A catalog and instructions will accompany the magnet.

Your child will created a special work of art while at school, and this image can be printed on to magnets, mugs, T-shirts, trivets and other items.  These make treasured gifts for grandparents, uncles, aunts and babysitters. For program information, please go to  http://www.originalworks.com/ .

CPI T-Shirts And Swag!

Our fantastic CPI logo was designed by Tuquyen Yee, a former CPI parent and Board Member! Tuquyen has been a part of the CPI family for almost a decade. Though she and her family have relocated out of the area, she still helps the school by designing all of our merchandise. She is the successful small business owner of Tuquyen’s Custom Creations. We are so grateful for all that she continues to do to support our school, even from miles away! You can order a CPI shirt from her any time by clicking here and while you’re there, check out her other creations!
