Students get to raise money for their school! Students will ask for a flat donation that is not based on an amount of activity. Ask friends, family, neighbors, etc. Any donation amount is appreciated! Many employers will match donations. Ask if yours does and double your donation.
Our Goal was to raise $15,000! Total money raised for the Move-a-Thon was $25,602!
The funds we raise directly benefit the students. Money raised will go towards supporting our students, classroom supplies, and enrichment programs.
Select “Move-a-thon” in the PayPal dropdown menu.
Donations are tax-deductible! John Rogers' PTA is a 501(c)(3) tax exempt organization - our IRS Tax ID #91-1154646.
The Move-a-Thon is a PTA sponsored fundraiser that encourages students to ask friends, family & neighbors to “sponsor” them
to participate in the Move-a-Thon.
What Happens at Move-a-Thon? On Wednesday, October 8th the students will head outside for a morning full of fun fitness activities like hula hoops, dancing, jumping jacks, and jogging around the track. They will get stamps for activities they participate in. Every student will receive a Move-a-Thon t-shirt!
What is the money used for? The Move-a-Thon is one of two main PTA fundraisers for the year. The funds will help pay PTA events like the Fall Festival, STEM night, and World Wide Culture Night, for our 5th graders trip to Islandwood, and enrichment program scholarships.
