🫧 Bubble Run
Kicks off September 4th, our biggest fundraiser of the year!
Get ready to make a splash! This incredible event helps fund all of the PTA events, programs, and special experiences that make our school year extra memorable for our students and teachers.
95% of profits stay right here at Sterling, compared to just 45% with Boosterthon. We keep the fundraiser completely in-house, that's a lot more bubbles for our buck!
But we can't make the magic happen without you! Whether you volunteer before the event, help behind the scenes, or join the Bubble Run Committee, every helping hand makes a difference.
Volunteering the day of the event? Keep an eye out for our SignUp Genius, coming soon!
