GIVE TO THE PS 87 PA PLEDGE DRIVE!

The PS 87 Pledge Drive is the year-long fundraising campaign for the PS 87 Parents Association. The generosity of the PS 87 community has enabled our children to benefit from kindergarten assistants, a librarian, arts & sciences enrichment, ballroom dancing, lunchtime sports coaches and so much more. The Parents Association also pays for teacher professional development as well as consultants and coaches. Lastly, money is spent on the basics: classroom supplies and furniture.
