School Marathon

The St. Charles Annual School Marathon is held the first Saturday in October and is a chance for fun and fellowship to support Catholic Education. Click below for details:

• Marathon packet and forms for 2023
• If you need more collection envelopes or tax deductible receipts, please contact the school office.

The marathon is our school’s community-building event and helps raise awareness of non-public education. It’s also the most important school fundraising event of the year. Donations raised through the marathon go directly to our school to support many programs and are a part of our operating budget.

Everyone is welcome!

All students in Preschool through 8th grade and their families are invited to participate in the Marathon. Each student in kindergarten through 8th grade is asked to meet a minimum fundraising goal of $190 to help us meet our school goal. Students may find people to sponsor them for participating in the Marathon, or families may choose to make the fair share payment of $190 per student. In addition to supporting our school through fundraising, students have an opportunity to earn prizes.

Matching funds

Matching Funds Programs are offered for educational institutions by many companies. They can be a huge help in reaching our goal. Please check with your employer about any matching fund programs that may be offered. Learn more about companies that have Matching Gift Programs in Minnesota.
