Mid-program Fun Run Update:

🥇Register for PJ Day, and rest easy knowing you’ve truly helped.
We need to get over 65% registered tonight/Weds morning (and pledging!) to stay on track.

We are currently at:
64% registered
41% pledged
And we’ve raised almost 73% of our profit goal.

🚨Only three days left!

Can we reach our goals of getting over 65% registered and $17k profit by Wednesday morning?
$19K by Thursday morning?
and $22K by Friday morning? 🤩

🌟if we reach our participation and fundraising goals by Friday, we’ll get to see both of our principals and the honorary Mr. Cleveland get SLIME dumped on their heads. 🎉

💰 Every dollar truly adds up quickly when our community of 700+ students and their amazing families contribute in any way possible.

👚 Wednesday’s Theme Day: celebrate all your hard work with a relaxing, cozy Pajama Day.

Register your student or make a pledge for your school’s Boosterthon Fun Run, Dance Fit, Fundraiser today!
