The members of the Home & School Association for the Academy at Palumbo share in a common vision; we are committed to making the school an academic, cultural, social, and athletic “jewel” that will be an ongoing source of pride to students, parents, the community, and the School District of Philadelphia. It is our responsibility to help realize this dream.

We would love to have your support for our event this year. Your donation will allow us to honor our vision/mission to host social activities that support the families of our more than 900 students. We believe that strong businesses create stronger communities and stronger communities build better schools and your donation will help us in this effort.

Attached please find the contribution form that will allow you to provide a description of your donated item. We will gladly post signage at the event and publicly thank you to our students, parents, and staff. Please let us know if we can count on your donation this year.
