Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate remaining donations

First, find the amount of money left after paying event - costs. Subtract the event cost from the total donations. Let $D$ be the total donations and $C$ be the event cost. The remaining amount $A = D - C$. $A=4390 - 1576=2814$.

Step2: Calculate money for school supplies

Then, find the amount of money for school supplies. Since $\frac{2}{3}$ of the remaining donations is for school supplies, let $S$ be the money for school supplies. Then $S=\frac{2}{3}A$. $S = \frac{2}{3}\times2814=1876$.

Answer:

$1,876$
