Family Giving at VHE

The Annual Family Giving Campaign is Virginia-Highland Elementary’s most important fundraiser of the year. It’s a simple and flexible way for families to directly support their child’s education by funding essential programs like STEM, arts, teacher grants, and community events.

This year, we’re focused on increasing family participation. Last year, we had 40% of families participate and we're shooting for 60% this year. Every gift makes a difference, and every family counts, no matter the amount! 

Ways to Give and Exclusive Perks

Donation Perks

All families who give will receive a gift of appreciation, with additional perks for higher levels of support. We recommend a starting donation of $250 per student, but EVERY gift is appreciated and makes a difference!

Murphy's dinner is officially sold out. Thank you for your generous donations!

*Private dinner will be limited to the first 55 donors and held on October 22.

Fun Raffles

New this year - all donors will receive thank-you perks AND be entered into raffles for exciting local prizes. Some prizes will be tied to giving levels to keep things interesting! Raffle winners will be drawn at the end of the campaign.
