The SASM Jog-A-Thon is our only PTA fundraiser of the year. Participants earn money for the school by running laps and getting donations. Participants will have 30 minutes to run as many laps as they can around our track at San Antonito. Participants get pledges from family, friends, neighbors, or businesses to support their efforts. Donors can either pledge a certain amount of money per lap or make a flat donation in support of our school.

Ask friends, family, neighbors, and businesses! Register your child at http://sanantonito.pledgestar.com/ It takes just minutes to set up your child’s own fundraising page to request pledges! When participants request pledges from at least 5 people online, they will be eligible for a prize, even if they don’t get any monetary donations. 

**Notes: When collecting pledges based on laps run. Kindergartners may run approximately 50 laps around the center of the field. The 1st through 3rd graders run on average 15 laps and the 4th and 5th graders run on average 20 laps around the track. We prefer donations through Pledgestar. If a check does need to be mailed, please mail to: San Antonito PTA, PO Box 14, Sandia Park, NM 87047. Please make sure your child’s teacher name is on the envelope or check. Thank you!

This year we are hoping to raise $25,000. If every student can raise $70 we can achieve our goal! Your support allows the PTA to continue to fund many of the great programs and events at our school such as classroom allotments, field trips, Fall Bash, funding for Digilab, library, art, music and more! This year any funds collected above $25,000, the amount needed to operate the PTA’s regular programs to support the school, will go toward other PTA initiatives. With your help, every child will benefit. 

Classroom teachers will ask for volunteers for their class before the day of the Jog-a-Thon. We also need helpers before and after the kids run on September 26th! If you’re able to volunteer please sign up at: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0E4EA5A92DA3FDC34-58343758-jogathon. 

To volunteer, you must have a background check on file in the office by the day of the event.
