Dear Yates Mill Families,
It’s time for Yates Mill Elementary's 17th annual FUN RUN! It is our PTA‘s major fundraiser for the 2021-2022 school year. Each student at Yates Mill will participate towards a common goal – enriching our school’s programs by raising funds to support teacher grants, provide educational enrichment opportunities and fund our “Outdoor Experience” effort to update the playground equipment, campus beautification and outdoor classrooms/meal spaces. Our goal is to raise $8,000.
On the day of the Fun Run, each class will have chosen a class theme and march to the outdoor track in “FUNKY FUN” style with the banner they have created representing their class. Each student will then have the opportunity to walk, run, skip or hop around the track for 20 minutes. The emphasis is to promote physical fitness, school spirit and FUN!
In order to make this a successful fundraiser, we ask that every child collect donations using the form sent home on October 1st. Our Fun Run is an all-volunteer event so 100% of the profits will be used directly by our school, for our children and teachers. Remember your gift is tax deductible! (Yates Mill PTA Tax ID# 56-2205881) Businesses can donate on your behalf by clicking the donate button above and selecting Business Donation.
Please send in your collected donations in the envelope provided or you can make online donations by visiting the PTA online store at: https://yatesmill.memberhub.com/store. You can also donate directly using Venmo @ymespta, just be sure to mention the student's name in the comment. We will also have coin jars accepting donations in the school’s lobby per grade level. Remember: If your company offers an employee matching gift program, you can make your contribution to YMES go twice as far!
