Race for Education Fundraiser

ANNOUNCING A SPECIAL EVENT

On Friday, October 18, 2024, Olney Christian School will be having a "Race for Education" -- a fun event to raise $20,000 in order to continue to continue to pursue excellence while keeping tuition affordable. Students will walk and/or jog around the track at Huntington Park Recreation Area as many times as possible in a one-hour period.  Each student will raise funds by asking sponsors to contribute a donation to Olney Christian School.  Please consider sponsoring a student today.  All donations are tax deductible.  Thank you.

SHOWING YOUR SUPPORT FOR A STUDENT IS EASY

1. Type your student's name in the box below and click "Search." His or her full name will then appear alone or in a list, along with their grade.

2. Click on the "Donate Now" button beside your student's name, and make your contribution.

3. Consider helping to spread the news about the "Race for Education." Below your student's name you will see the wording: SHARE THIS STUDENT URL, and next to that will be his/her specific webpage URL. Click on the social media icons or copy & email the link to their page.

You can give any amount, of course, and those who contribute $25.00 or more will have their name and their sponsored child's name on a Special Sneaker to be displayed in the school's main hallway as a way to encourage and rally our students.

We should also tell you that students, as well as their class, can win prizes (e.g., Free Homework Passes, Special Snack Cards, Dress Down Day Passes, Pizza Party Cards, Class Party, "Wawa" Gift Card, "Dunkin' Donuts" Gift Card, "Five Below" Gift Card, Cash Prize, DJ Dance Party, and more!) for the number of sponsors they recruit. Finally, contact your sponsored student to find out the time that he or she will be jogging/walking.

Thanks for investing in a child's education. This is going to be a fun and rewarding event!

If you prefer to pay by check, make the check payable to "Olney Christian School." Add the student's name in the memo line and send to Olney Christian School, 425 E Roosevelt Boulevard, Philadelphia, PA 19120.
