Go The Extra Mile
Donation protected
Hello everyone!
Welcome to the Go The Extra Mile fundraiser, started by the 2020-21 XCTF Captains. This fundraiser welcomes the entire MLWGS school body, parents, and alumni to come together to support our goal.
The MLWGS faculty and staff have been working so hard and going the extra mile for us this year, so we thought why not run some miles for them? During the week of December 19-26th, 2020, participants are invited to run as many miles as they can with the faculty/staff in mind. They will have already reached out to their donors (family, friends, neighbors, etc.), who will pledge money to donate per mile the runner completes.
For example, if the participant ends up running 10 miles in the week, and the donor has pledged $8 per mile, the donor would donate $80 to this GoFundMe at the end of the week. The runner will be filling out a mileage log throughout the week to present to the donor at the week's end. Donors may additionally set a "cap" on their donations, for example, pledging $5 per mile with a max of 20 miles. You may also donate money straight to this fundraiser, if desired, without doing so under a runner.
This GoFundMe will be open until December 31st, 2020. The runners will have completed their mileage by the 26th, so this gives the donors five days to donate their pledged amounts. The money raised will be presented in check form to the PTSA, which will then purchase gift cards under the Scrip Program for the 80 faculty and staff members at Maggie Walker.
Our goal is to raise $2000 for this cause, so that each faculty and staff member will receive at least a $25 gift card just in time for the holidays and end of the first semester.
Thank you for showing our MLWGS family some love! Now go out there and run your hearts out. :)
