Facts About Fundraising
In April, students ask friends and family to sponsor
their efforts with a flat fee for walking or jogging laps at the Walk-A-Thon. Donations can be made online at www.99pledges.com, or by check. This
is a flat donation event, not per lap. Donations are tax deductible. If you write a check, 100% of your donation will go to the PFC. Your
Sponsors can Donate Online with 99Pledges.com. You
will receive an email from 99Pledges
for each student, with a link to their personal student online fundraising
page. This page can be posted to Facebook, or forwarded by email to friends and
family. Your Sponsors can
Write a Check. Complete the Check Donation form that we will send home, attach your check payments, and return them to the Walk-A-Thon box in
the school office. Please turn in your check donations by the date of the Walk-A-Thon to
be eligible for the fundraising prizes.
