About this fundraiser:

Carl Sandburg Elementary is fondly called “my school” by about 500 Kindergarten through 5th Grade students, their parents, and about 60 staff. Our school neighborhood prides itself on providing a safe, nurturing environment for children to learn since opening its doors in 1966.

During our Adventure Awaits! Read-A-Thon, our goal is to raise $50,000 for Sandburg AND have every Sandburg student participate whether they raise money or not. Our mission is to create a fun school-wide community event that celebrates reading while empowering students to participate in raising funds for Sandburg. All money raised will go directly to helping support staffing costs, specials, supplies, and other needs not
funded by the district. Although we want to raise money for the school, our primary focus will be encouraging participation and
excitement about reading.

Encourage your student's next reading adventure by making a pledge to their Read-A-Thon today. Your donation will help the Sandburg PTO continue to provide additional financial resources and enhancements to our beloved school. No matter the amount you can spare, it all adds up to make a direct impact on our children’s education. Thank you for your support!
