Support Your Spartan!

11/15/2024 9:00 am

Our HMS PTO "Support Your Spartan!" Fundraiser successfully kicked off this week! Thank you to those who have already generously donated. This is the primary fundraiser that occurs during the school year to enhance and enrich your child's learning at HMS. Our 2024-25 fundraising goal is $35,000. With just over 750 HMS students, if we receive a $50 donation for each student, we will meet our goal! Any donation amount is greatly appreciated.

Donate via Zelle to treasurer@hmspto.org, note "Support Your Spartan!" You may also send or drop off a check made payable to HMS PTO at Hinsdale Middle School, 100 S. Garfield, Hinsdale, IL 60521. If you wish to donate, please do so by December 3, 2024 (Giving Tuesday).

All donors will be entered into a weekly raffle and acknowledged on our social media sites. If you wish to remain anonymous, please send an email to vpfunding@hmspto.org. Thank you for supporting your Spartan!
