four women and one man holding a giant check for $15,000

In a heartwarming gesture, the Jack Elementary School PTA donated $30,000 to enhance the playground facilities. The impact of this donation extends far beyond the monetary value. The playground is a crucial space for students to engage in physical activity, socialize, and foster their overall well-being.

"Jack PTA is honored to give Jack Elementary School a $30,000 check for upgrades to their playground,” Jack PTA Jessica Kulaga said. “Our students worked hard to create a playground fund last year during their fun run, and we are excited to see what fun items will be added for their enjoyment! Thank you to all the supportive parents, community members, and volunteers who made this fund collection possible."

With the infusion of this substantial donation, the school can transform the existing play area into a vibrant and exciting space for children to explore and enjoy.

“We are so thankful for the support from our PTA and the donation,” Principal Brett Shelby said. “Our Fun Run last year was a huge success, and the funds raised from our community are appreciated to upgrade our playground with new equipment for our Leaders to enjoy.”
