Gift Card Drive for Local Families

We’ve been hearing two things from our Miller community:

“Times are tough and I need help.”
“Times are tough and I want to help.”

In the spirit of giving, the Miller PTO is collecting gift cards to support local families experiencing financial hardship. You can help by donating cards of any amount to grocery stores, gas stations, or major retailers (like Fred Meyer, Safeway, Target, or Walmart). Every contribution makes a difference.

Drop-off Days:

• Thurs 11/13
• Fri 11/14
• Mon 11/17
• Tues 11/18

Drop off Gift Cards During Student drop-off (7:30–7:45 AM) or pick-up (2:15–2:30 PM) with a PTO volunteer.

Our FAN (Family Access Network) Advocate will distribute the cards directly to families in need. FAN support all families—from birth through graduation—with needs like Wi-Fi, food, rent, or healthcare to ensure every child has what they need to learn. Miller’s FAN advocate is Sarah Bolling, sarah.bolling@bend.k12.or.us, text 541-362-0825, or call 541-355-5684.
