Fundraising

Fundraising is the primary way the PTO funds key programs, initiatives, and events throughout the year.  From helping to fund class field trips and classroom expenses, to hosting school-wide events like Olympic Day and Fifth Grade Graduation, to supporting community organizations, every dollar raised through our various fundraising opportunities goes towards enriching every student and family's experience during their Elementary School journey. 

Please take some time to learn about the many fundraising opportunities that you can purchase right from this website!
Shop Beye-In Parties
What are Beye-In Parties?  The concept is simple:
  1. Beye parents volunteer to host parties.
  2. You buy* ticket(s) to a party.
  3. You go to the party!
​* Beye-In Parties held at Beye are suggested donations to ensure everyone in our Beye family can attend these community building events.

As Mr. E's 18-year tenure serving as Beye School's beloved, fearless, revered, tireless, and ever-chill Principal comes to a close, as well as his 30+ years at Beye School, we put our feelings of loss aside and prepare to celebrate Mr. E's incredible contributions and impact to both the Beye and Oak Park communities.  To do so, the PTO will have several fundraising events specifically earmarked to raise money for Mr. E's farewell celebration and to a Legacy Fund, details that will be presented to Mr. E at the celebration event!
We are reviving our 3-on-3 Basketball Tournament, a school-wide event where you and your child(ren) K-5 can participate in, compete or cheer on your friends!  FREE for kids to participant, and FREE to watch!​
Purchase a Brick
Take a stroll on the brick walkway in the front of Beye School and see what a lasting impression your brick will make!  Perfect for achievements, graduation, recognition, and more!  Two brick sizes are available: 4x8 (up to 4 lines lines of inscription) and 8x8 (up to 8 lines of inscription).

You can order a brick at any time, but a minimum of 10 bricks is needed and/or an order will be placed at the end of the school year to make the installation cost efficient.
Each Spring, the annual Beye Flower Sale is your opportunity to beautify your home with hanging baskets, potted plants, and flats of annuals ... everything you need to get yourself out of the Chicago winter blues!  Check back in the early Spring for a link to order your flowers, which are delivered to Beye school for pickup mid-May.
In November, grab a Geppetto's Holiday Savings Card for $10 and save 20% on all purchases within the specified week ~ a great way to save on your holiday shopping while contributing to the PTO!
​At the end of each calendar year, we ask families to consider extending their support to the PTO to help all Beye students have the exceptional elementary-school experience every child deserves.
Earn money for the PTO while simply shopping at the same places you currently do!  We typically sell these during the Winter holiday break but are evaluating an around-the-year program.
At the beginning of the New Year, the PTO sponsors the Beye Pancake Breakfast, one of our larger meal-based fundraising events.  Get your fill of pancakes, side of proteins and fruit, served with love by Beye teachers, staff, and volunteers.  Have your child(ren) enjoy time with their teachers and friends over the most important meal of the day!

Beye Fun Fair:  As the second largest fundraising event each year (behind Beye-In Parties), the Beye School Fun Fair is a school-wide extravaganza that combines carnival games for all ages, inflatables, and other Beye staples like the Silly String and Hair Dye areas, PLUS an extensive array of items up for bid in silent auction and in raffle drawings.  Check back in the Spring for a link to learn about the items up for auction and to get a jump on the bidding before the day of the Fun Fair!
Beye Book Fairs:  Each fall and spring, the Beye Book Fair raises money for the PTO while filling Beye students' homes with perhaps one of the most important tools and keys to learning, creativity and imagination -- books!  This year, Beye is teaming up with Anderson's, an independent bookseller out of Naperville.
Concessions:  Did you know that buying concessions from Beye tables -- at events like Picnics and Talent Show -- not only quenches your thirst and gives your body the important fun-utrients it desires, but it also helps raise money for the PTO?!  Support the PTO and your tummies the next time you see a Beye concession table.
Smile.Amazon:  Shopping at Amazon? It costs nothing extra to support the Beye School PTO.  Start your shopping at AmazonSmile and setup Beye School as your charity in just a few simple steps, and a portion of your eligible purchases will be donated to the PTO!
