THE MOVE-A-THON IS BACK!
We’re excited to announce the John Rogers Move-A-Thon is back! Save the date for Friday, May 9th! This is a big fundraiser for John Rogers and every kid gets to participate.
The funds we raise directly benefit the students. Money raised will go towards supporting our students, classroom supplies, and enrichment programs.
Our goal is to raise $10,000!
This is a big goal, but we know with everyone’s support we can do it! Go Otters!
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.
HERE ARE WAYS YOU CAN SUPPORT MOVE-A-THON
RAISE MONEY
Help your child gather donations
Students have the opportunity to raise money for their school from now until the event on May 9th.
How it works: Students ask friends, family, neighbors, etc. to sponsor them for Move-a-Thon. Sponsorship is a single donation and not based on amount of activity. A pledge sheet will be sent home to help you track donations. Any donation amount is appreciated! Many employers will match donations. Ask if yours does and double your sponsorship.
VOLUNTEER
Volunteer the day of the event (Friday, May 9th)
Every student will participate by moving for an hour outside and together! We need volunteers to run stations, be crowd control, hand out water, and more. The event will take place the morning of Friday, May 9th at Nathan Hale.
