This year, we’re trying something new instead of our traditional silent auction! While we’d love for all Bulldog parents to join us at WAG to support our kids, we know that’s not always possible.

The good news—there are plenty of other ways to give back. Check out our amazing raffle items, sign-up parties, teacher experiences, and more to find something that works for you.

Prefer to give directly? Our Fund-a-Need makes it easy to donate to programs and events that benefit every Van Meter student.
