Ongoing Fundraising Activities

The program runs from August 1st – May 31st yearly. Remember that you must re-link your card each year on August 1st to make sure your Harris Teeter purchases benefit Northwood Band Boosters.

CHATHAM PTA THRIFT SHOP

Northwood PTSA Thrift Shop

Volunteers support the NHS Band Programs at any of the Chatham PTA Thrift Shops. Volunteer hours equate to dollars that are sent directly to the NHS Bands General Fund when recorded into the Northwood logbook at the store. When you sign the logbook, write “Band” as the entity for which you are earning hours.
