What is Laps 4 Leadership?

LAPS for Leadership is coming Thursday, April 27, 2023!!!

What is Laps for Leadership?

Laps for Leadership is Eagle Crest Elementary School’s one major fundraiser each year! 80% of ECES PTO’s annual income is generated from this single event. As such, we have big goals for what we are trying to raise, and big plans for what we do with those funds. Our 400+ students participate in this annual fun run at the Altona Track. All that being the case, our only goal for the day is that kids have fun, do their best, and are celebrated for their amazing contribution to our school. Families are encouraged to attend to support our students. Every dollar raised stays IN THE SCHOOL and benefits our students and staff!

Online donations are made through our Get Movin’ online donation portal that is easy to share with family and friends. Cash and checks made out to Eagle Crest PTO are also welcomed and can be turned into your classroom teacher.

We need YOUR help to make Laps for Leadership a huge success. Our goal in 2023 is to raise $23,000 this school year!

What Does It Take to Reach $23,000?

If every family raised $100, we could fully fund our programs next year. You can share your student’s online donation page easily with family and friends through social media, email and text messages. No donation is too small. You can also check with your employer for corporate matching to double your donation.

Remember, when we all work together as a TEAM everyone WINS! Remember TEAM stands for Together, Everyone, Achieves, More.
