Annual Fund
Please Support the Garfield PTSA Annual Fund
Our 2025-2026 goal is $250,000!
NEW Gift Matching Opportunity! $26,000 honoring the class of ’26
12/9/2025 – We are excited to share the opportunity for every GHS supporter to double their impact and help us get closer to the goal…DOUBLE YOUR DONATION TODAY!
Through the incredible generosity of a Garfield family, in honor of their Bulldog senior and the entire class of 2026, every dollar donated up to $26,000 will be matched!
When you donate to the Annual Fund — whether it’s $50 or $5,000 — Garfield students will benefit.
Every day, we see the difference the generosity of this community makes, enabling the Garfield High School Parent Teacher Student Association to support students and the teachers & staff who work with them.
Your contribution creates opportunities that bring learning to life, including inspired teachers, comprehensive academic offerings, vibrant arts programs, and a welcoming space where every student belongs. In 2025-26 the PTSA will spend over $500,000, which is far more funding than the PTSA has ever provided to Garfield in one school year.
