Last Call for Holiday Giving

Calling all Sandburg Families!

This is your last friendly reminder that ALL items for the Holiday Giving Campaign are due to the Sandburg Front Office by Friday, December 15

There are still a few slots available. However, with time running short, if you would like to contribute to the campaign but you don’t have time to make it to the store, please consider a monetary donation at: https://holiday-giving-sandburg-families-in-need-general-donation.cheddarup.com

The PTO will use these funds next week to fill in any gaps that the list may still have. Thank you for your support and consideration to this incredible program!

Holiday Staff Contributions

This is also your last friendly reminder that ALL contributions (both via the CheddarUp link or at the PTO drop box at school) for holiday staff contributions are also due by Monday, December 18th

The Drop Box will be emptied and closed by 3pm. The Cheddar Up link will remain open until 10pm on Monday, December 18th. We will need time to make deposits and reconcile the amounts given and distributed per staff member.


This program is geared to be successful by power in numbers. You don’t need to spend $10 per staff member!  We can spread wonderful and much deserved holiday cheer to the Sandburg staff by giving in numbers! Easy math – if 100 families give even $2/$3 for chosen staff… we are up to two hundred dollars! 

Of course this is completely optional! We hope it gives a unique opportunity to say thank you for all that you do, especially to staff members who impact all our children each day!

Cheer on the Denver Pioneers!

Join fellow Sandburg families to cheer on the Denver Pioneer's Hockey and Basketball teams this winter! Tickets are still available, but selling fast. We have a block of 75 seats for each game, so don't delay....get your tickets today!!
