ANNUAL FUNDRAISERS
GTAB is run purely by the generosity of members and companies who give and participate in our annual fundraiser efforts. Typically, GTAB hosts four fundraisers a year. These activities change slightly with updates in the community and committee efforts/ideas. ​
​​​
In addition to fundraiser activities, GTAB is also funded by purchases through our store and membership dues. Your membership dues go directly toward funding mini course supplies, field experiences, theater trips, club sponsorship stipends, TPSP supplies, club supplies and much more! No volunteering is required, but always appreciated. Join today!
​
​
bake SALES
GTAB has two bake sales each year.
(1) Winter Hoopla
(2) TPSP Showcase
SILENT AUCTION
The Winter Hoopla auction is typically in January or February and involves bidding on items, baskets, and activities that are sponsored by each of our classrooms. The bidding can get intense for some of our activities. If you are interested in donating an item, please reach out to our auction chairs.
COLOR RUN
The color run is an in-person event held in the Spring. This is a joint effort event sponsored by GTAB and the PTA. Students run through colorful chalk and have a grand time.
QUILT AUCTION
Each year our 5th grade students at Sablatura Middle School take part in creating a quilt as a part of their TPSP projects. The quilts are then presented and you can bid on the quilts to take one home. This is a special project that instills life-skills, research, and presentation skills for our students.
