On Jan. 28, the EB Central School families raised $46,000+, surpassing their goal of $40,000 during their Boosterthon Fun Run: Color Run & Kindness Campaign. With this money, the school will be able to fund immersive educational experiences for field trips, technology, e-learning tools, alternative seating, and more.

The kids completed 10 acts of kindness and ran 25 fitness laps during their Fun Run and as a result of achieving their fundraising goal, they were given a fun lunchtime that was DJ'ed by the principal.

Thank you to everyone who made this possible.
