The last 4 years of fundraising, we have accomplished so much!  We have been able to raise $180,000 and provided the following:

  • new laptops for STEM and tech classes
  • an all-weather ground to our GaGa Pit
  • new basketball nets for the playground
  • a new climbing rope for the gym
  • a brand new playground(with the help from the school board!)

This year, Fundraising will begin on May 1st  and go through May 16th. For 2026's Fun Run, here's what we're fundraising for:

AN EXTREME GYM MAKEOVER

 

Our theme this year is K-oda Pop Chase! a fun mix of k pop and running along with our school mascot, Koda! 

 

The team colors were changed this year and are Hot Pink, Neon Yellow, and Electric Blue! The kids love the change and shirts have gone on sale. Price for shirts increases each week and sales end April 15th to ensure our supplier has time to fulfill our order in time for the Fun Run event!

You can order the shirts for your children here : https://channing-hall-pto.square.site/ 

 

The Main Event   -  Friday May 15th, 8:40am-12:10pm

WAYS TO HELP:


Our PTO (who organizes the Fun Run) is in dire need of help! Please check out this SignUpGenius for different ways you can help make sure our Fun Run is a blast for our students. Even if you can't help in-person, there are lots of other ways.

 

 

WAYS TO DONATE:

 

Get Movin' Fund Hub:
Every student will go home with a flyer sharing how to set up an account on Fund Hub. We use Fund Hub to accept and organize donations and it makes it easy for parents to share on social media and for the PTO to keep track of individual and classroom fundraising goals. CLICK HERE to register or login.

 

 

Do they charge a fee? Yep, and it's a hefty one. We get it. But right now, the PTO doesn't have enough volunteers or expertise to build our own website to these capabilities. We hope to be able to use our own site instead of Fund Hub one day. 

 

Checks & Cash:
Every student will be sent home with an envelope they can use to collect any cash and/or checks they earn or receive. These can be dropped off at the main office at school with either Ms Heather or Ms Meredith. PLEASE make sure that any cash or checks are labeled with the student's name and classroom teacher (or grade for middle school). If these are not labeled, then the student will not receive credit for the donation for their individual or classroom fundraising goals.

 

 

PTO Store:

If you have friends or family who REALLY want to donate, but not thru Fund Hub or via a check or cash, we can accept donations through our PTO Store. Please be patient with donations made through our PTO Store when it comes to classroom totals. It will take longer to update with donations made through the PTO Store. *This is a large part of why we are still using FundHub; keeping track of the totals!

 

 

FUNDRAISING REWARDS:

 

Students can earn rewards for fundraising; even as little as $5. We track classrooms too and will post progress on the wall in the school lobby in May. 

 

 

 

Soda Truck Party:
 
Every student who fundraises $150+ will be invited to the Soda truck Party on Thursday, May 21th. Teachers will have a list of students and they will be pulled out of class starting at 1:30pm to join us for custom made sodas. Then they'll head back to class. 
 
Video Game Truck Party:
 
Every student who raises $350+ will be invited to join the Video Game truck party on Wednesday, May 20th at 1:45pm. 
Teachers will have a list of students and they will be pulled out of class starting at 1:40pm to join us for video games and treats. Then they'll head back to class.
 
Breakfast & Activities:
 
For the top 2 classes that earn the most in fundraising, the PTO will host a celebratory breakfast on Wednesday, May 20th. They'll have breakfast on the playground pavilion including bagels, donuts, fruit, and water. We'll celebrate with lots of different kinds of bubbles and silly string! the highest earning class gets the teacher a gift basket and the 2nd highest earning class gets their teacher a gift.
