Russell Families,
It’s time to collect Walkathon donations! 🎉 Our Walkathon is Russell’s biggest fundraiser of the year, and every dollar makes a difference. Funds raised support classroom accounts, community events, school improvements, and so much more!
HOW TO COLLECT DONATIONS
Students are encouraged to ask family members, friends, and neighbors they know if they would like to support Russell School. Please do not send your child door-to-door.
Sponsors can make a flat-dollar donation in any of the following ways:
Cash or check: Return donations in your child’s Walkathon envelope.
PayPal QR code: Scan the code on the back of the envelope.
Online donations: Share this donation link with friends and family near and far. You do not need a PayPal account to donate! (https://www.paypal.com/ncp/payment/8ZL6LNFPLVXQ8)

We’re excited to celebrate our fundraisers!
The top five student fundraisers in the school will receive prizes.
Every student who raises $100 or more will earn a prize!
