The end of the year sneaks up on all of us and many of our families realize they may need a charitable deduction at the last minute.   Remember, Rogers PTA is a 501(c) 3 organization.  Here are some great ways to give:

PTA donations on our Web store.  Donations can be made directly on our store by clicking here (scroll down for donation options) or checks made out to Rogers PTA can be dropped off at school before the end of the year.

Wellness Center wish list.  The Rogers Wellness Center is still looking for cozy furniture to purchase, bean bags, couches, cute bins, rugs of any size, a mini fridge and supplies.  If you prefer to purchase an item from their Amazon wishlist, click here.

Giving Tree gift cards.  Gift cards can be in any amount and dropped off at the Rogers front office by the end of today. They will be used to help Rogers families in need.

Rogers Rescue Mission.  The Rogers Rescue Mission is still in need of nonperishable items, full or travel-size toiletries, children’s or adult books, shoes, shoelaces and socks.  Bins are located in the foyer before the Front Office and can be dropped off today as well.
