2025–2026 PS 33 Chelsea Prep PTA Annual Appeal

The PS 33 PTA makes possible the enrichment programs, classroom support, and community events that make our school so special — but we can’t do it without you!

While we fundraise throughout the year, family contributions and corporate matches provide the foundation for all PTA-supported programs.

What’s New This Year

We’re simplifying giving! This year, the Teacher’s Assistant (TA) Fund and Annual Fund have been combined into one unified Annual Appeal. This change helps us allocate resources more efficiently and make every dollar count.

Our Goal

We’re asking each family to contribute $2,000 per child (about $6 a day) to sustain PS 33’s exceptional programs.
Every donation—large or small—makes a difference. Our true goal is 100% family participation at any level.

Your Contributions Support

  • Teacher’s Assistants (TAs) in every K–5 classroom

  • Enrichment programs like Third Street Music, Chess, National Dance Institute, Center for Architecture, Arts Connection, Child’s Play NY, and TADA!

  • Student life & learning support, including Recess Coaches, Track & Field, Math Club, Field Day, field trips, and Principal Cindy’s Wish List

  • Community-building events such as Falloween, Holiday Movie Night, Lunar New Year Celebration, Spring Gala & Auction, and Family Game Night

  • Health & wellness programs, including lice checks twice per year

None of these programs are funded by the NYC DOE — they exist entirely because of your generous support!
