PTA's annual Jogathon fundraiser is coming on Friday, March 13! Start getting your pledges now and win amazing prizes!
Help us reach our $110,000 fundraising goal for the 2020 Jogathon! ALL proceeds benefit Longfellow and help to pay for the numerous programs and events coordinated by Longfellow PTA including fieldtrips for each class, Meet the Masters art program, an extra day of music with Mr. Petri, classroom enhancements funds for each teacher, family movie night, STEM night, and much more. All extra funds will go towards upgrading the playground with a new play structure!
The easiest and fastest way to get pledges for Jogathon is by signing up via Pledgestar to do your fundraising online. No awkward conversations to ask for support, reminder emails automatically sent, and easy tracking of how much your child has raised are all possible with Pledgestar. Send 10 emails out to family and friends and your child will get 5 tickets for the Opportunity Drawing and be eligible to win amazing prizes. For more Jogathon info, click HERE.
