These events not only contribute to crucial financial support for educational programs and resources but also foster a sense of community spirit. We're proud to organize diverse and engaging fundraising activities that bring our school community together, uniting everyone in the shared goal of enhancing the educational experience at Varina Mehfoud Elementary.
