Walk-a-thon Helps Raise Funds
Thursday, December 01, 2011
The students at St. Joseph School, Cottleville participated in
the 4th annual "Walk This Way" walk-a-thon on Friday, October
7. The event helped raise money for our new Mac computers and
other school improvements.
To help raise funds, students solicited sponsors to pledge a
tax-deductible contribution based on the number of laps completed
by the students or a flat donation. The students walked
around the south lot and the soccer field for an hour.
Priests, teachers, school administrators and parent volunteers
helped encourage the students and also participated in the
walk.
This event raised nearly $50,000 and was a wonderful community
building event for St. Joseph School.
