Walk this way! Help Hamilton Elementary build a new athletic field by supporting the 4th Annual Hamilton Walkathon Pledge Drive.
The pledge drive is one of the biggest fundraisers supporting Hamilton Elementary. This year, we're walking to reach a $20,000 fundraising goal to benefit a turf athletic field on the west side of the school.
We are challenging all Hamilton students to collect at least $20 in walkathon pledges. Classrooms with at least 70 percent of students meeting this challenge will earn a movie party, and there are other fun prizes for top pledge-getting classrooms and students.
Pledge $75 and become a Walk This Way sponsor
Individuals pledging $75 or more will be recognized as Walk This Way sponsors and be identified on the walkathon t-shirt. If you are making a Walk This Way pledge of $75 or more, please contact walkathon co-chair Sarah Makela at smakela@uchicago.edu by Tuesday, September 25, with the name you would like included on the t-shirt. Information provided after Sept. 25 cannot be included on the t-shirt because of our printing deadline.
A note about sponsoring Hamilton siblings:
If you would like to sponsor Hamilton siblings, we encourage you to evenly distribute your donation and sponsor each student separately through his or her student pledge drive page. For example, if you have two grandchildren at Hamilton and would like to donate a total of $100, please pledge $50 to each grandchild's student pledge drive page. This will ensure that each of the siblings get credit for your donation.
Thank you for your support!
