You're invited to the Roosevelt Island PS/IS 217 PTA (PTA) International Fundraising Dinner this Saturday night June 8 from 5 - 8 PM. According to the PTA:

The PS/IS 217 PTA is excited to be organizing its Annual International Dinner Fundraising Event on June 8, 2013. We are depending on Community Businesses and families to help make this very special event a success.

Due to budget cuts, PS/IS 217 relies on fundraising activities to maintain our School Enrichment Programs alive for the 2013-2014 school year. You can help our school by either making a monetary donation or by setting up an Individual food tasting table to showcase your business. Please find below a donor form to donate and fill out, copy for tax purposes and return with your donation.

This year’s event will include a sit-down dinner, wines from around the world, live entertainment and multiple “food stations”, all donated by families and the community. We are also extending this invitation to local politicians and community leaders.

Through the joint effort of our school community and our local community, this event is sure to be a memorable one for the children, families of our school and the business that help to make it a success!

We look forward to your generous support in making this a successful event.

Tickets are $15 for adults, $10 for children and $50 for up to 4 members in a group.
