WHAT IS WALK-A-THON

Walk-a-Thon is the biggest fundraiser of the year and we couldn’t do that without the help and support of all of you. 100% of the contributions from our Walk-a-Thon are gifted back to our school. Donations in any amount are appreciated and are also tax-deductible. EHPTO uses Walk-a-Thon as our main fundraiser and its success towards our annual fundraising goal means parents won't be inundated with fundraising requests throughout the year. School fees and district budgets only go so far. The money raised goes to support our teachers by allowing them to add classroom supplies, school necessities and curriculum enhancements and also to developing our students by providing additional experiences in and out of the classroom. Our goal for 2026 is to raise $15,000.

Here is just a quick glimpse at some of the ways your donations made a difference to our school in the 2025-26 school year:

• Class Field Trip Transportation, and Assemblies

• Field Day & Kona Ice Visits

• Free events for students and families, such as Grandparents & Goodies; Donuts & Grownups; Family Fall Fest, Daddy/ Daughter and Mother/Son Dances; All-Grade Holiday party and more!

• Teacher Appreciation & Mini Grants for curriculum enhancements
