How We Raise Money

In September, ECES PTO collects funds at the beginning of the school year so that we can spoil our teachers and staff all through the year! Laps 4 Leadership, our largest fun-run fundraiser, is held in April and raises more than $20,000 to support our school community. Additionally, we have on-going passive fundraising opportunities such as Milk Caps for Moola, King Soopers Community Rewards, and local restaurant fundraising nights. During the 2022-23 school year, we funded more than $18,000 worth of programs and experiences for students and staff!
