It’s Move-a-Thon Time!

The Move-a-Thon is a super fun student participation fundraiser where students run, walk, skip, and dance laps around the playground to raise money for our playground, recess equipment, and Learning Gardens.

If each student raises $50, we will meet our fundraising goal!

Students collect pledges or donations through May 24. Donors can pledge by flat donation or per lap around the playground completed (expect a student to complete 15 to 20 laps).

  • To give a flat donation - donations are collected online via GiveButter

  • To pledge by the lap - students will note and track your pledge via their paper pledge sheet and follow up after the event with the final total

  • We suggest a flat dollar amounts to eliminate the need for follow up

The Move-a-Thon is Friday, May 24 during school.
