Lietz HSC is excited to announce Walk-A-Thon 2024!!!
The Lietz 2024 Walkathon will take place on Friday, October 25 during the school day.
We need a lot of volunteers to make this a success!
Please email board@lietzhsc.com to express interest in volunteer opportunities!
What is the Walk-A-Thon?
The Walkathon is the largest Lietz Home and School Club fundraiser of the year. The financial generosity of our community, including parents, friends, family, neighbors, and local businesses, enables us to provide enrichment programs to our students that would not otherwise be possible.
Our wonderful enrichment programs include Art Vistas, Project Cornerstone, Creating with Clay, and so many more. Funding for these programs and so many others comes directly from donations. It costs about $250 per child each year to provide these additional enrichment programs and we are hoping to raise enough money to continue to fund all our wonderful programs.
Donate
This year, our goal is $250 for each student. Donations can be provided online below. Alternatively, collection envelopes will be sent home with your student. Remember to check with your employer to see if they offer a corporate matching program!
Contributions using corporate programs (such as Benevity) are accepted and encouraged. If you do so, please send your donation receipt to treasurer@lietzhsc.com for your donation to count towards class incentive competitions.
Please note, only the contribution and not the corporate match will count toward the total amount raised for class incentive competitions.
Donations are tax deductible and can be performed easily using the links below.
Where does my money go?
- MUSIC and ART: Create w/ Clay, Art Vistas, supporting classroom music programs and extra curricular opportunities like band and choir
- SEL (Social Emotional Learning): Project cornerstone and Kimochi
