Fundraising

Running a successful cross country program takes time, energy, and money. Fundraising is our least favorite part of the sport but without it we cannot have a season. The school pays for transportation (this is huge) but we have to fundraise for everything else including:

  • Racing Singlets/jerseys
  • Racing Shorts
  • Shirts
  • Hoodies
  • Warm-Ups
  • Meet Entry Fees
  • Training Equipment (weights, bands, rollers, etc)
  • Hotels for championship invitationals
  • End of season banquet
  • Website


  • Awards
  • Online Training Platform & Stats
  • Coaching Education
  • And various other expenses.


Our primary fundraiser is through Aktivate and each student-athlete is required to set up a fundraiser. We need to raise approximately $500 per student-athlete to cover our expenses.


  1. Set up your fundraiser account at https://raise.aktivate.com/welcome?pin=y56ywwgUGw
  2. Add at least 15 contacts (family, friends, parents networks, etc.)
  3. Hi preview and then blast it out via text, social, etc


In order to get all of the team gear this season you need to add at least 20 fans (or donate at least $400.)
