Fundrasing

Thsi is our biggest fundraiser of the year, and it’s how the PTA funds the amazing programs your kids enjoy in their classrooms. We need donations from friends, family, and co-workers to make it a success. Every contribution, big or small, helps us reach our goal.

Sponsoships

This is a team effort, and we need our amazing Kettering families to help out. Do you have contacts at businesses or corporations? We’re asking you to reach out and solicit monetary sponsorships.

Every sponsorship brings us closer to our goal and helps fund the incredible programs our kids love. Together, we can make a big impact!

Prizes!

This year, we’re setting an ambitious goal: $4500 per classroom! We need your help to make it happen. This isn’t just about raising funds; it’s about coming together as a community to support our kids. Prizes will be awarded based on classroom achievements, with additional prizes for individual accomplishments. Plus, every Kettering kid will receive a Fit Fest shirt!

Let’s rally together and hit that $4500 goal for each classroom. Donate today and make a difference in our students’ lives!

Benefits

All money raised goes directly to the school, funding essential programs that the district does not provide. Every student benefits from these funds, which support Ground Education, Art at Your Fingertips, yearly field trips for all grade levels, family nights, STEM and ELA programs, classroom enrichment, and much more.

Goals

Our goal this year is to raise $70,000! 

Last year, we exceeded our goal—can we do it again this year?

Volunteer

Fit Fest is 100% volunteer-led, and we need your help to make it a success! Whether it’s calling or writing letters to solicit donations, spreading the word to all Kettering families, or ensuring everything runs smoothly on the big day, there’s a role for everyone.

We need over 40 volunteers during the event to keep things running like clockwork. It’s a fantastic way to get involved, meet other parents, and support our kids.

Join the fun and volunteer today! Volunteer here. Let’s make this the best Fit Fest ever!

Fit Fest Event

Kettering hosts the most unique fundraising event in Long Beach.  This isn’t just a fun run—it’s an action-packed day with over 20 stations featuring a variety of sports, dance, and other exciting activities for your kids to try out. Every student gets to participate, making it a fantastic opportunity to inspire an active lifestyle and introduce our kids to all sorts of fun ways to stay healthy.

What to Expect

Fundraising for Fit Fest begins on January 13th, 2025, and ends on March 28th, 2025.

Families will need to register on Pledgestar as soon as possible and start sending emails and/or texts, via Pledgestar, to potential donors. We also encourage you to reach out to businesses you have connections with to ask for donations—every bit helps! The PTA and fundraising committee will solicit businesses for donations during this time as well. 

Weekly prizes will be handed out to the KIDS who have the most emails and/or texts sent through Pledgstar. 

We will have updated classroom goal attainment numbers posted in Pledgestar so each classroom can see where they stand in winning prizes. 

On March 28th, 2025 we will host our Fit Fest Event (weather dependent). This is the most unique fundraising event held in Long Beach. Your students will get to visit multiple stations where they will learn a sport, dance, or activity taught by professionals. We have a DJ on sight as well as an action sports show to entertain the students and provide a lesson in staying active for body and brain health. We need over 40 volunteers to make this event a success.
