Donate & Fundraising
There are many ways to donate to our amazing school! Whether it be your time, or money, every contribution counts!
Each year the PTO oversees many efforts in order to raise the monies needed to provide all the wonderful programs and opportunities to the school that would otherwise not be possible. Fundraising and direct donations help support student and teacher programs, school wide and community events, technology upgrades, additional staff members, campus and playground improvements and more.
Help make the next 20 years at Desert Willow as great as the first 20 years!
We're always looking for new ways to raise money for our awesome kids! Contact us so we can discuss the details. Have a fundraising idea? Contact the PTO at dwespto@gmail.com.

Teacher's Wish Lists
While DWES PTO does provide $200 for each teacher to buy classroom supplies, teacher's always end up spending their own money fulfilling thier classroom needs. Even with the copius donations families send in at the beginning of the year, there is never enough money to support our teachers! Please consider supporting classroom teachers through their Amazon wishlists.
