The annual Hawk Walk fundraiser at Holy Family Regional Catholic School was a resounding success, raising over $40,000 to support various school programs and initiatives. The event, held last Friday, saw students, teachers, and parents walking for a cause, with all proceeds benefiting extracurricular activities, technology upgrades, and classroom supplies.
This year’s walk-a-thon featured a vibrant atmosphere, with hundreds of participants strolling along a scenic route around the school grounds. Many students were sponsored by family members, friends, and local businesses, contributing to the incredible fundraising total. Some students even set personal fundraising goals, with a few surpassing $1,000 in donations each.
“It’s amazing to see the community come together for such a positive cause,” said Kara Haggerty, the school principal. “Not only do the students get to engage in an active event, but they are also learning the importance of giving back and supporting their school. This year’s success truly reflects the dedication and generosity of everyone involved.”
The school’s Hawk Walk has become an annual tradition, with this year’s event surpassing its fundraising goal by over $2,000. The school is already looking forward to next year’s walk, aiming to continue building on this year’s success.
With this year’s funds, the school plans to purchase new learning technology, improve the playground, and fund field trips and classroom materials for the upcoming school year. The school community is already buzzing with excitement, as the impact of this event will be felt by students and staff alike.
As the event came to a close, the students, parents, and staff celebrated their collective effort and looked forward to the positive changes that would result from the funds raised during this year’s Hawk Walk.
