“The pchs band boosters inc was organized to support the students, directors and families of the port charlotte high school bands, in their goal to achieve the highest standards of music education and music performance. By partnering with the community, we provide financial support where needed, coordinate student activities and events and provide parent volunteers to assist the director in accomplishing the tasks that benefit the band students and programs. The boosters also bring awareness of the needs of the band to the community through holding various types of fundraisers for the various programs and activities for the band. The organization hosts the local middle school students during the marching band season to participate with the high school band at the football games to encourage them to continue their band music education when they start in high school in the coming years. The organization hosts an annual year end band banquet to honor and thank the students for their participation in the band program as a way to encourage the students for their accomplishments each year in the band program of the port charlotte high school. The organizations community fundraisers held are organized also to help other non-profit organizations, as well as the band, with things such as collecting non-perishible food items for a local food bank, and a shared fundraiser with the american cancer society.”

The annual band banquet in may of 2018 was provided for 95 students to honor those involved in the band program but also those graduating seniors for their participation in that year's band program.

And the non-perishable food fundraiser for the local food bank was a huge success. The boosters had 45 parents and booster friends volunteers who helped with the various programs and activities for the pchs band in the fye 6/30/18.”
