Get ready to jog for a cause! For this year's Turkey Trot, we’re asking each student to help raise funds by finding sponsors to donate money for every lap completed. Our goal is for each student to raise at least $20. Plus, any student who raises $100 or more will win a special hot cocoa basket!
We are using a website called 99pledges to assist us in our fundraising goals. If you would like to spread the word online go to https://app.99pledges.com/fund/leroynicho1 to create a page specifically for your child. Scroll to the bottom and in the lower left corner click "Add Participant." Enter your child's first name and last initial, your email, and their grade then "Add." This creates a page specifically for your child. Share the link to family and friends and they can easily donate online.
Tips for Talking to Potential Sponsors:
•“I’m helping raise money for my school, and my goal is to complete as many laps as I can. Would you like to support me by donating any amount for my effort?”
•“If I raise $100, I can win a prize! Would you be able to sponsor me and help me reach my goal?”
•"Hi! I’m participating in my school’s Turkey Trot jog-a-thon. Would you be willing to sponsor me with a flat donation?”
Please return donations to your teacher by Friday, December 6th.
