DIRECT DONATION FUNDRAISING
PEER's approach to fundraising is to implement a focused Direct Donation Campaign in which parents and the community make financial contributions that go directly to schools. This eliminates the need to purchase products (i.e. magazines) and provides schools with a much greater percentage of funds raised.
