Fundraising History

Originally, Foundation’s fundraising was done through a Triathalon. The Triathalon was a 100% parent-run fundraiser that took several months to plan. We raised an average of $14,000 per year during the 2013-2016 school years. Starting in 2014, we added a Bingo Night fundraiser that brought in an average of $992.00 during the two years we held this event. In the 2014 and 2015 school year, Foundation partnered with a fee-based third party fundraising company, Color Run. Through that partnership, we raised an average of $12,837.49 per year. In 2017, we were unable to continue our Triathalon fundraiser. The Chair left Meadows and we were unable to fill this role. Additionally, we were unable to continue our partnership with Color Run because the company did not meet our district’s requirements. In the 2017/18 school year, we collaborated with Apex Leadership Company. Apex’s powerful on-line platform helps us reach out of state friends and relatives. They provide our students PBIS-based leadership lessons, combine fitness, fundraising, and leadership into a powerful united event that raises funds for our school and helps build your student’s character. We raised a net $42,158.31 during the 2021-2022 school year for the 2022-2023 school year. 70% of our donations are from out-of-state sponsors.
