About PUPs

 

PUPs is a non-profit 501 (c)(3) organization, ID number 20-3347053. Your donations are tax-deductible.

You may not realize this, but ALL MSJHS students enrolled in Drama, Chamber Chorale, Chorale, Band, Color Guard or any other performance art are Universal Performers. 

Our students are very lucky to have the support of PUPs so they can participate in a number of projects that are not funded by the school district.  In addition to helping fund events, PUPs also funds items such as:

  • Royalties on music

  • Costumes & Uniforms

  • Royalties on plays

  • Coaching        

  • Instruments and Equipment

  • Transportation to events

  • Instrument Repairs

  • Custodial Fees for after hour programs

The success of our fundraising program is more critical than ever.  We need ALL PUPs members (if you have a performing arts student, this means you!), to participate in fundraising.  We have a wide variety of opportunities for fundraising, some of which are:

  • See’s Candy Bars

  • See’s Specialty Chocolate (Christmas & Valentine)

  • Jolly Time Popcorn

  • Mini-Christmas Trees

  • Current Gift Wrap & Stationery

  • Borders Gift Wrap (December)

  • Border’s Book Sale

  • Jamba Juice Days

  • Wine Tasting Party

  • Jazz Dance

  • BBQ Dinners (Back to School night & other functions)

In addition, we also participate in the following in conjunction with Boosters & Mission Possible:

  • SCRIP

  • Outback Steakhouse BBQ

  • Crab Feed

We realize that fundraising is difficult for some families and others would rather not participate.  If this is you, then in lieu of fundraising, we ask that you make a donation to PUPs in the amount of $300.  Checks should be made payable to PUPs and sent to either Anne Riley or Monica Kraft.
