Posted by It’s time for our annual Cornell PTO FUN(d) Run! As our biggest fundraiser of the year, this exciting event plays a vital role in finalizing our annual budget. Every dollar raised goes directly back to our school in the form of funding special events, classroom items, teacher supplies/grants, equipment, staff appreciation, and much more!
Our goal this year is $20,000 with a suggested donation of $50 per student. Online donations are preferred and can be made here: Zeffy Cornell Run 2026
If you prefer to donate via cash or check (made payable to Cornell PTO), please return your donation(s) in the large envelope that was sent home in last week’s Friday Folder no later than 9/25/26.
We have some exciting school-wide goal incentives, as well as an awesome raffle basket for those that donate! See the image below for more information.
This year’s run is Friday, September 25th, 2026 from 9:30-11AM on the NEW CHIPPEWA TRACK!!
Families are invited to come out to cheer on their runner! If you’d like to volunteer to help at the event, please sign up here: https://m.signupgenius.com/#!/showSignUp/805054BA4A62CA0FA7-65661166-cornell?useFullSite=false
