🏃‍♂️ WHAT IS THE JOG-A-THON?

The Jog-A-Thon is one of Weaver’s biggest student-led PTA fundraisers and we need your support! Participation is optional, but your support makes a BIG difference! Students run to show school spirit and raise funds for:

  • 🧪 STEAM staff & programs
  • 📚 Librarian & literacy programs
  • 💻 iPads for classrooms
  • 🏃‍♀️ PE staff & equipment
  • 🎨 Arts instruction
  • 👩‍🏫 Professional development for teachers
  • And so much more! 

⚙️ HOW DOES IT WORK?

Students raise funds by collecting pledges to support their run in the Jog-A-Thon on Thursday, September 25th. On event day they’ll:

  • Wear their FREE sponsor-funded Jog-A-Thon shirt, and participate in the run, regardless of whether they raised funds 👕
  • Run through our 100% organic foam 🫧
  • Enjoy a free non-dairy popsicle after the run 🍧

  • Families are invited to cheer on their out-of-this-world runners! 📣

💰 HOW CAN I RAISE MONEY?

Raising funds is simple! Register your student with Pledgestar HERE. All pledges are flat donations, regardless of the number of laps run. Every contribution counts, and students can earn prizes by reaching individual fundraising goals! 🏆
