Feed the Purple Envelope – Be a Deer, Give a Doe-Nation!
Formerly known as our Direct Ask, this year we’re excited to introduce a fresh take on our biggest fundraiser of the year:
Feed the Purple Envelope – Be a Deer, Give a Doe-Nation!
This fun new theme reflects the same important goal- to raise the funds needed to maintain the high academic standards and enriching programs that make Deer Canyon Elementary School such a special place.
For each child enrolled at Deer Canyon, families are encouraged to support at one of the following giving levels:
- Top Tier: $300 per child ($30/month)*
- Second Tier: $225 per child ($23/month)*
- Third Tier: $150 per child ($15/month)*
*Monthly contributions are for the duration of the school year
Your donation helps bridge the gap between what the district covers and what our students truly need … funding programs like STEAM, PE, teacher grants, enrichment opportunities, and community events.
Let’s come together to “feed the envelope” and keep Deer Canyon strong, supported, and thriving!

Donor Incentives
We’re grateful for every donation, and we’ve created three giving levels to recognize your generosity:
