Invest in Student Success!

VPS Students Care

Formerly called the Student Chest Drive, this annual event to benefit the Foundation happens across all schools during the month of November

The annual VPS Students Care campaign is an opportunity for students to use creative thinking and have fun while participating in philanthropic giving.

During the drive, each school in the district will have their own campaign running to raise funds that benefit their fellow students through the Foundation for Vancouver Public Schools. There are often incentives, trophies, and a friendly sense of competition!

Information about the VPS Students Care campaign will come from your school or you can make an online donation at any time to support students.

Elementary grades are sent home flyers, while secondary schools will get the word out a variety of ways (depending on your school.) Be on the lookout for events or communications about your student’s campaign – and feel free to share with others!

Honor your student and their teacher with a meaningful gift that helps remove barriers to learning for students in need and supports enrichment, mentoring, and other opportunities that inspire academic and personal growth.

Together we can ensure all students come to school happy, healthy, and ready to learn!
