Fundraisers & Donations

Casino Fundraiser

Simons Valley Elementary Parent Fund Raising Society has a Casino roughly every 18 months. Our responsibility is to provide volunteers over a two day period. In return, it receives a portion of the pooled profits for the relevant quarter. Past Casino’s have been hugely beneficial to the school. We just had a casino this past year and were informed that we received $68,461.57, these funds will be a huge benefit to our children.

Other 2017-2018 Fund Raisers
