Bridge The Gap
Each year, the PTA determines a budget to support an enhanced educational experience for all students. Our school offers numerous wonderful opportunities for our students, many of which are not financially supported by the NYC DOE. The generous contributions of our families go a long way to filling these budget gaps.
Give what works for your family.
Each family should independently decide on a meaningful contribution;
any gift is highly valued and appreciated, whether it’s $50 or $5,000!

3 Ways To Maximize Your Gift
Step 1: Check for
Employee Matching
Find out if your employer offers a corporate match on the Corporate Match Directory. If you do not see your company listed, check with your HR department or ask the Bridge The Gap Committee (familygiving@friendsofmsc.org) to ask for you.
Step 2: Share Our
Bridge The Gap Fund
Seek extended family giving by sharing the DONATE page with grandparents, aunts and uncles, cousins, and close family friends for contributions of any size on behalf of our students.
Step 3: Give Hours
Or Know-How
Remember that your time and talent count as much as your financial gift. Send an email to any member of the Executive Board if you are willing to write a grant or organize a fundraising event to expand your family’s contribution. If you have other ideas, we want to hear those too! Please reach out to copres@friendsofmsc.org.
