Angel Program - Donations are down this year! We need your help!
Donations can be made online throughout the school year. If you haven't yet contributed and you would like to donate, please click here or send/deliver a check made out to the IMS PTSA to the school and reference the Angel Program in the memo line. Your donation is tax deductible. 100% of the monetary donations go back to the student & their family in the form of gift cards twice a year.
The Angel Student Assistance Program is a confidential behind-the-scenes PTSA program. It is made possible by donations from our IMS community. This program has two components which are monetary donations as well as donations of items such as bedding, clothing and toiletries.
The children are selected by the IMS counselors and their identity is anonymous. Your donations go a long way to make a family from IMS breathe a little easier when they are experiencing tough financial times and need a little extra help.
Thank you for your support.
