Supporting a good cause

A “charity chair” is auctioned each year, as well; the proceeds from its sale go directly to a designated nonprofit. (Past recipients include the Make-a-Wish Foundation and a local homeless shelter.) In 2010, it wasn’t a chair at all—inspired by the book The Giving Tree, the PTO pulled together a small apple tree from a nursery and a collection of children’s books.
