Fundraising

Community Fundraising

There are so many ways we can use our amazing Costa Mesa community resources to us fundraise for our schools. From local restaurants and your regular market trip, take a look at the ways you can help our school without spending any additional money.

Coin Up

What if you could simply donate your spare change from everyday purchases to support your student's learning at Kaiser and Woodland Elementary Schools? Well now you can! KWPFO has  partnered with a mobile donation app called Coin Up. You can make a monthly impact to the PFO's fundraising for our schools through Coin Up in 3 Easy Steps:

1. Download the (free) Coin Up App from the App Store or Google Play Store.2. Select Kaiser Woodland PFO as your charity.

3. Link your bank card and set a monthly limit.

Coin Up rounds up each transaction to the nearest dollar and donates the "spare change" directly to our organization. Your information is secure and encrypted with bank-approved technology. Most importantly, you're always in control of your Coin Up donations by setting a monthly limit.

Other important things to know:

    • A one-time set-up charge of $1.00 will be charged when you
      activate your account.
    • A minimum donation of $5 per month can be set. You can choose your own monthly maximum amount.
    • The PFO does not have access to any banking or credit card information. Coin Up protects your data through its trusted partners providing 256-bit encryption, multi factor authentication (MFA), and the highest levels of banking security.
    • Your donation to the PFO through Coin Up is tax deductible! Get a tax receipt for 100% of your donation.
    • You can change your monthly maximum or cancel your participation at any time (but we hope you don't).

Donate to Our Libraries

Our Diversity & Inclusion team continue to work with our amazing librarians to add titles for students to open constructive conversations on diversity and create deeper connections with one another.
