Sumac’s Reach for the Stars Jog-a-ThonSumac’s PFA is excited to host this year’s "JOG WARS" Jog-a-thon! It is our goal to bring our community together to raise $40,000 to keep Sumac’s special programs such as PE, STEAM, Music, and Library alive!
Thanks to the generous support of local community businesses and the Sumac PFA’s decision to once again not use a third-party to host this event, 100% of the pledges will go directly to supporting our Sumac students! Join us in supporting our students and help us reach our 2018 goal of $40,000! Make A Pledge That Supports Your Students
Fundraising Details for StudentsSumac will once again be using the online Pledgestar platform to make it easier for you to reach out to your family and friends to ask for their support. Simply visit our school’s pledge page HERE, and in less than 3 minutes your child(ren)’s page will be complete!
Set-up is as easy as 1-2-3!
Family and friends will then receive a personalized email from your child(ren). When they click on the donate link, they will be taken to a personalized donation page. Family and friends may pay directly on the site via a secure, online payment portal that deposits donations directly into the school’s account, or they may mail checks directly to the school. Upon completion of the donation, friends and family will receive a Thank You note from your child, complete with a tax donation receipt. How easy is that?!? 
Help us reach our donation goal of $40,000 !
Some of the cool features of our online pledge tool: Donation Dashboard: Monitor your child(ren)’s success with their Donation Dashboard to see who donated and how much they raised. Multiple Children: Pledgestar will automatically split all donations amongst your children. So if Nana and Papa want to make one donation for $50, each child will automatically receive credit for $25.00. Jog-a-thon Event Details
All Students Participate - The fitness portion of the Jog-a-thon is an all-school event. Like participating in P.E., students are encouraged to jog, run or walk, according to their abilities, even if they aren't collecting donations.
