Culbreth Middle School Holiday Fund

In keeping with an annual tradition, the holiday go fund me for Culbreth staff is underway. Through December 5th make a donation through go fund me or you can drop off a check or cash at the front desk at Culbreth. There is an envelope labeled Culbreth holiday fund. All funds raised will be distributed at the staff luncheon on December 12th. This is a parent led initiative and not a PTSA fundraiser. Please help to spread the word and consider donating to those who do so much for our children! Please donate here and check teacher gifts off your list!

Holiday Hope & Joy

If you would like to help give a Culbreth family something they can really use this holiday season please consider donating a grocery card and/or a warm winter coat!
Coats could be new OR gently used.
Most needed are the adult sizes: Small through XL
Families are constantly updating me on this need so I don’t have an exact number.
Please drop off in the front office BY DECEMBER 10 so I can distribute the week of the 13th. Any coats remaining will be distributed to CHCCS families outside of CMS.
If you would like to donate a grocery card - please drop one off at the front office BY DECEMBER 8 and I will distribute these to Culbreth families the week of December 11th. Cards received after this date will be distributed as needs arrive throughout the remainder of the year.

Please email me to let me know if YOU are in need of a coat or gift card. We are here to support one another.
Cheers to good health and peace in 2024!
Warmly and with gratitude,

Stefanie Mazva-Cohen
