Do Walk-a-Thon donations count toward my fundraising obligation of $150/student (max $300/family)?
Yes, they certainly do! In fact, this is the way to get the most money for the school directly, because all of the money contributed to the Walk-a-Thon goes to the school, rather than some going to the cost of a product as with other fundraisers. 2. What if we get sponsors from outside our family to donate money; does that still count toward our fundraising obligation? Absolutely! 100% of money collected from any source that is turned in under your child’s name for the Walk-a-Thon counts toward your fundraising obligation. Please feel free to use the sample email wording in the form “Sample Email to Get Pledges”, posted in the Forms section above, to help you encourage potential sponsors to support your child and our school. 3. If my company does matching funds for schools, will that also count toward my fundraising obligation? Yes! This is a great way to get your obligation taken care of without costing you much money! Just fill out your company’s matching donation form and turn it in
