help us Celebrate Sunnyslope Teachers & Staff at the Winter LuncheoN

On December 17th, VPC will be hosting a special Winter Luncheon for our current and alumni teachers and staff. This event is our way of recognizing the incredible work and dedication Sunnyslope teachers and staff have shown this year. As part of our appreciation, we would love to gift each current teacher and staff member a $25 gift card, and we need your help to make that happen.

How You can help

1. DONATE CASH. Any amount is appreciated, and we will purchase the gift cards on your behalf. Two ways to donate:

  • Via our website

  • Via Zelle to the VPC Treasurer (annaegharib@gmail.com)

2. DONATE A GIFT CARD TO A LOCAL BUSINESS. Any denomination is welcome. Smaller amounts will be combined to reach $25 per staff member. Drop-off location: Sunnyslope front desk

3. DONATE LARGER GIFT CARDS OR SPECIAL ITEMS. Higher-value cards ($50, $100+) and items like event tickets, theater passes, hotel stays, etc., will be used to create raffle baskets for our teachers and staff. Drop-off location: Sunnyslope front desk

4. VOLUNTEER. We would also love your help on the day of the luncheon! Shifts include:

  • Setup: 8:30–11:30 AM

  • Serving: 11:45 AM–1:30 PM

  • Cleanup: 12:45–2:00 PM (or until complete)

Sign up here if you’re able to assist. Feel free to sign up for multiple shifts if you’re available!

We are excited to host this annual event and are grateful for any support you can provide, whether through donations, volunteering, or both.
