OUR FUNDRAISERS

The Carrillo PTO has numerous fundraising programs and holds events throughout the year to support our students, families and school faculty.

We begin the school year with our annual Cash for Colts fundraiser and conclude in the Spring with the Jog-A-Thon. Throughout the year, we have a variety of ways to contribute to Carrillo such as Box Tops for Education, Dine Outs and Raise Right Gift Cards.

FUNDRAISING EVENTS

Cash for Colts

Carrillo's Annual Fall Fundraiser, Cash for Colts, takes place at the beginning of the school year, and your tax-deductible contribution helps ALL Carrillo Elementary students. Art supplies, library books, STEM supplies, and additional teachers are just some of the ways the PTO helps all students be their best. There are incentives starting with a $25 donation and they increase when you give generously.

Thank you to our 2025 Sponsors!

Dine Outs

The Carrillo PTO organizes Dine Out fundraisers throughout the school year with local restaurants. On select dates, participating restaurants donate a percentage of their sales back to our school. These events make fundraising simple and enjoyable. Families can dine in or order takeout while supporting both our school and local businesses. Proceeds from Dine Out fundraisers help fund programs, activities, and resources that benefit Carrillo students and teachers.

Jog-A-Thon

Jog-A-Thon is our biggest fundraiser of the year with 100% of the proceeds going right back to our students. This fundraiser provides our students with a robust STEM and art program, as well as additional instructional aides in the classrooms. Our school prides itself on not using an outside vendor to run our fundraiser, however that means that many hands are needed to make this event a success.

This year's Jog-A-Thon kicks off with a pep rally on April 10 and the main event will be on April 24.
