PTO Partnership
Impression 5 Science Center
PTO Partnership Fund Raising Program
It's easy! Instead of selling candy bars and wrapping paper to raise funds for your school, now you can sell Impression 5 Science Center Memberships! This is a great way to encourage families to spend time together and foster life-long learning.
In addition to receiving free admission to Impression 5 for 12 months, Impression 5 Members also receive free or reduced admission to over 400 other science centers all over the world!
Here is how it works: For every new membership your school sells, Impression 5 will contribute $15 back to the PTO or directly back to the school. These funds can be used for school projects, field trips, purchasing science equipment, etc.
