Carnival fundraiser

Raffle Basket Donation Hub

Sunday, May 17, 2026 • During the FVES PTA Carnival

Every classroom basket helps power the programs our Fireflies count on all year long. When families donate a small item, a Wish List purchase, or a quick Venmo contribution, it adds up to field trips, assemblies, teacher grants, and community events.

Use this page to find your classroom theme, donate to a class Wish List, or send in a few easy drop-off items before Carnival.

Can’t volunteer? You can still help.

A contribution of $10-$20 or a Wish List item helps us build raffle baskets that support field trips, assemblies, teacher grants, and community events.

Wish List items

Use the classroom Wish Lists below to donate directly to your child’s basket.

Drop-off items

Candy, small toys, art supplies, books, and gift cards are always helpful additions.

Donate to Baskets
Classroom Incentive

Popcorn Party with Dr. Fish

The classroom that fills their basket with the most items wins a Popcorn Party with Dr. Fish, always a Firefly favorite.

Why it matters

Every donated item becomes part of a basket families get excited to bid on, and every bid turns into year-round PTA support for students and staff.

How it works

Each class builds a themed basket

Families donate through Amazon Wish Lists or by sending new in-person items to school for the class basket.

Good to know

Winners are announced before close

Baskets are displayed during Carnival, and winners are announced 30 minutes before closing. You do not need to be present to win.

Donation deadline

Send items by Thursday, May 14

Please send all in-person basket donations to your teacher by Thursday, May 14 so classes have time to finish their baskets.
