Annual Appeal Fundraising

Each of the 1300+ Ingraham High School students benefit from funds raised throughout the year in support of operations and programming not funded by the school district.

Generous donations made by parents, family members, and the community allow the Friends of Ingraham (FOI), Ingraham Performing Arts Boosters (IPAB) and Ingraham Athletic Boosters (IABC) to enrich students’ academic, extracurricular, social and emotional experiences at our school. 

2024/2025 FUNDRAISING GOAL

$300 per student / $400,000 across all fundraising activities. 

We know that $300 is a stretch for some families, while other families may be able to give more. Every donation, no matter the amount, is appreciated and supports positive student experiences.
