"What a wonderful incentive for our students to raise money. With the prizes on offer the money just kept on rolling in. With 80 students raising $12,000, we couldn't be happier. Thank you for making it so easy!"
Sally Stuart"The Fun Run is a terrific fundraiser. It was very user friendly and promotes an excellent fitness activity. The prizes are a great incentive for our kids. Any problems we had were dealt with swiftly & effectively. I was amazed at how much money we raised & the kids will all enjoy the new library facilities."
Stephen Dome"Excellent. Terrific staff & support whenever i phoned. Speedy prompt service. Easy to follow steps. Students thoroughly enjoyed doing the FUN RUN. Great prizes & cash back for the school."
Sally Kluver"This would have to be one of the easiest fundraising activities that i have been involved with. Thanks to the well organised team at The Fundraising Group all the hard work is done for you, all we had to do was collect the money and enjoy the day. The kids had a fantastic day and raising over $1,000 topped it off. Thanks to The Fundraising Group we look forward to next year, kind regards Melissa."
Melissa Cooper"Thank you so much for a wonderful fundraiser to kick off the school year. This is the first time we have formally arranged fundraising and also the first time to introduce the Sunblock range to our families. From a co-ordinator’s point of view, it couldn’t be easier and all students received their products today.
The feedback has been very positive and the suggestion has already been made to run the fundraiser again at the beginning of next year. Many families that didn’t order this time have expressed interest in ordering next year now that they have seen and heard how good the sunblock is and how great the price is! Thank you again!"
Tamara Sexton"The Green Up Clean Up was a very realistic and relevant fundraiser which had the added bonus of allowing the students to impact positively on their environment. This in turn will increase the students' pride in their school."
Claire Bowerman - Teacher"The fundraising committee are extremely happy with the success of the program and are looking forward to spending the money raised for school improvements."
WPH's - Fundraising Committee"We felt it was important to send a clear message to our students about health and fitness so we conducted a Fun Run. We are delighted with the result and would recommend the School Fun Run to other schools looking to do a healthy fundraiser."
Melinda LeMesurier"Not only was our School Fun Run a very enjoyable and fun filled day the whole school, it was also a very successful fundraiser. For such a small school to raise just under $2,000 was way beyond my expectations. More importantly our school then received half of the raised funds which surpasses another fundraiser we have been involved with in the past. Thanks for helping us achieve this goal."
Monique Miers"Students were given the opportunity to study the brochures and set a goal for the amount they wanted to raise or the prize they worked for. Once they had set their goal they then worked hard to obtain it. The Fun Run itself was terrific because we invited members of our community to participate as guides therefore there was lots of community involvement.
The bigger kids actually ran a course that took them through the streets of our community. The whole community clapped and cheered as the kids ran past. Next year we plan to have important members of our community participating again – both in the fundraising and the fun run."
Michelle Brown"A great fundraiser for all children to take part in! No sign of junk or chocolate anywhere! Our children look forward to our Fun Run every year."
Jodie Coward"We really enjoy doing the fun run every year! It is so well organised and saves me time. The kids just love the prizes and rewards they receive. It is a great way to raise the profile of our Cross Country and have the whole school participating in physical activity. Thanks School Fun Runs for all your assistance."
Kristen Knight"The School Fun Run program provided us with the opportunity to raise a significant amount of money to support our school environment. Just as significantly, the program rewarded our students for being both physically active and promoting an active lifestyle for kids. Implementing it was easy too!"
Stefan Poropat"The kids love the fact that they get something from the event not just the school. I love it because there is very little effort involved to get a great result."
Le Anne Whittred"Thank you for helping us organise a great event, everyone was very excited today and the cheering was deafening. Is is so good to see enthusiasm coming back into Cross Country. Many students are coming up to me to show me how many sponsors they have again such a good feeling. So again thank you for helping make Cross Country exciting. I will highly recommend you to next years committee."
