At St. Cletus Elementary School, the beginning of the school year just wouldn’t be the same without
Boosterthon. In its fifth year of raising funds for the school’s needs, the relationship that has developed
between the Boosterthon team and the teachers and school administration continues to strengthen.
“My families love the ease of this program,” said Principal Jill Grabert. “The ability to use social media
to request donations makes it effortless for students.” She noted about 66% of funds raised were from
someone other than parents, such as grandparents and family friends.
“Booster brings the energy and the capacity to get the students excited about raising money for their
school,” said Principal Grabert, who appreciates the simplicity and turnkey aspects of the program.
“It is so easy! They distribute prizes, get the kids excited, and share in the fun of the activities.”
The Booster team was grateful for the opportunity to deliver a program that wa engaging and exciting for
the students, while taking the burden off school leaders, teachers, and volunteers. They plan to use the
fundraising profits to enhance education for their students with updated school curriculum for a lasting
educational impact.
