Dear Falcons,

Thank you for coming out and supporting the Franklin Elementary PTA at our 9th Annual Walk-a-thon, Pop & Walk.

It was wonderful to witness the students stretching, walking, running and blowing bubbles with the support of families, teachers, staff and friends. Thank you to all the volunteers who helped put together this community favorite event full of music, cowbells and bubbles. We hope you had as much fun as we did putting it together.

As of noon today, we have raised $45K, 113% of our $40K Goal. To reach our SuperStar Goal of $50K and to help defray the rising costs of putting on the event, let's see if we can raise just $5K more. We have 3 more days, until this Friday, October 11th to fundraise.

Even if you've already donated, please check with your Employer to see if they have a match donation program. According to FundHub, our community could potentially raise an additional $2k, just from employer match programs, and it is as easy as filling out a form. Email our Chairperson at walkathon@franklinpta.org to let us know to look out for the funds and to make sure your student/class gets credit on FundHub.

The Walk-a-thon would not be possible without the generous support of our community sponsors- THANK YOU!
