Peabody Proud 2025-26 Campaign

2025-2026 Peabody Proud Campaign (PPC)

Pledge & Donate

For over a dozen years, the parent-led Peabody Proud Campaign (PPC) has been raising annual funds to sustain the excellence of Peabody Charter School and its commitment to educate the whole child. Now an embedded part of the school’s annual budget, the flexible funding provided by the Peabody Proud Campaign is essential for a fiscally healthy school. Additionally, this flexible funding is critical for Peabody’s ability to adapt to constant change and have the ability to respond immediately. 

PPC provides essential funding for staff, educators, and programs. Last year, PPC funds supported technology, supplies, facility upgrades, and teacher support.

This year, a portion of the PPC will help to support essential capital projects, such as upgrading the cafeteria equipment. Our amazing cafeteria is able to make home-cooked meals right here at Peabody that are no cost to families, thanks to continued government funding. The cafeteria also provides hands-on learning for the children, with projects incorporated into the classroom curriculum at all grade levels. 

The goal for the 2025-26 Peabody Proud Campaign is $200,000 so we can maintain a stable part of Peabody’s budget. We ask that you make the most generous gift that you can, at whatever level is attainable to you. Historically it has been suggested that families consider $1,000 per child but understand people have different circumstances. We are striving for 100% participation from all Peabody families by October 4th. Literally no gift is too small, or too large.  

Together, we are Peabody Proud!

Sincerely,

The Peabody Charter School Foundation Board of Directors and The Peabody Proud Committee

Jennifer Zacharias – Vice President, 6th grade parent

Erin Sanchez – Secretary, 4rd grade and 6th grade parent
