In advance of the event, APTA will send information through social media and email to educate you about PTPAC. We'll host a virtual Flash Action Strategy kickoff event the evening of Sept. 24. On Sept. 25 and 26, students and schools will provide an easy way for students to participate in PTPAC and support our efforts before Election Day.

Support PTPAC, Sept. 25-26, and help us reach our goals:

  • Have 3% student member participation.
  • Raise $10,000.
  • Recognize 250 Student Stars.

We all win, and we have a chance to win even more.

Schools with the highest percentage of students participating will win the following at APTA CSM in Houston, Texas:

  • First place: four PTPAC event tickets.
  • Second place: two PTPAC event tickets.
  • Third place: one PTPAC event ticket.

All schools participating in the FAS that are not in the top three will have a chance to win one of the three remaining PTPAC event tickets in a wild-card drawing. Students participating in the FAS for their school will be eligible, so any PT or PTA student who donates to PTPAC (even $1) during the FAS gets a chance to win, even if your school did not place first, second, or third!
