8th Grade Annual Fundraiser
Due to COVID, The 8th Grade Graduation Committee and Marie Murphy are not able to fundraise as they have in past years. As a way to generate funds without compromising safety, the 8th Grade Graduation Committee has created a GoFundMe page where any parent or community member can make a donation to support graduation activities for the Class of 2021. If you are interested in supporting the committee and our soon-to-be Marie Murphy graduates, please donate here.
Anderson's Annual Book Fair
The Avoca PTC and Anderson's have teamed up to bring you the Online Book Fair! A portion of the proceeds will benefit the Avoca PTC. Support our schools by participating and discover the best book selections and new releases from Anderson's. Choose to have your books delivered to school on Wednesday, March 24 or to your home. Students can order after March 21, but would need to have books delivered home. Click here for the flyer! Please contact us with any questions at customerservice@abcfairs.com or call us at 630-820-0044.
Donations Requested for Silent Auction
The 2021 Silent Auction Fundraiser is still going on and the Fundraising committee needs your help! Do you or someone you know own a business, hold tickets or memberships, or have merchandise/gift certificates/services/good that you are willing to donate? Your donation will go a long way in this auction - the funds help purchase educational supplies, school equipment and support school events for Avoca Elementary and Marie Murphy Middle School. It is also great exposure for local businesses, especially during COVID! For acceptable donations, donation forms, and all other inquiries, please email avocasilentauction@gmail.com or visit the website here.
