Get Ready to Run for BME's 2026 Jog-A-Thon!

September 25, 2026

Jog-A-Thon is an annual fundraising event put on at each Zionsville Elementary school. This event was created to reduce the number of fundraisers needed to support our students and school staff throughout the year. It is the only fundraiser where we ask students to directly participate and one of only TWO fundraising events throughout the year. 


Jog-A-Thon takes place on a course in the back parking lot of Boone Meadow Elementary. Students will be given time to jog (or walk) as many laps as they can. All students, Preschool through 4th Grade, will participate throughout the day at different times. They will be provided a Jog-A-Thon t-shirt to wear that day. Everyone is encouraged to participate in the annual theme!

Fundraising Website

Create a personalized fundraising page for each of your students to collect donations!


  • Register your child(ren) using their name, with your email address.
  • If you have more than one child, use the same email address for each child and add a +1 before the @ sign in your email address.


For example, if you have three children and your email address is eagle@bme.com, register your second child with eagle+1@bme.com and your third child with eagle+2@bme.com.

Fundraising Tips

To maximize your donations, consider the following fundraising ideas:


  • Ask for digital donations through your child's personalized website to easily share your fundraiser with friends and family. 
  • Ask if your company has a corporate matching program. You could get your donation doubled!
  • Request lap pledges from friends and family to be turned in after Jog-A-Thon -- even $1 per lap will add up!
  • Get your students to share their "why" -- this is the only BME fundraiser where students are asked to raise money. All donations go directly to Boone Meadow and enhance your child's school experience!

Ways to Donate

Fundraising Tips

Fundraising Tips

All students can participate in Jog-A-Thon by fundraising before the event. There are three way to collect donations:


  • Digital Donations through the GiveButter website
  • Cash or Check turned in to their teacher
    • Make sure your student's name and their teacher's name are on all donations brought to school so they receive credit!
  • Lap Pledges to be turned in after the student completes the event
    • For example: Grandpa pledges $5 per lap. The student completes 10 laps, resulting in a $50 donation to be collected after the event.
