Walkathon
The CCHS Walkathon has raised over $2 million since 2003, funding important initiatives that directly impact the student experience. This year's Walk will be held on Friday, November 22, 2024. Please consider supporting our students and staff through this important event!
The Goal
The Walkathon is Central Catholic’s sole, student-based fundraiser to benefit the school and is supported by the Parents Guild and the Student Council.
The money raised is used to help pay for initiatives that are not covered by tuition, helping to stretch the operating budget and keep tuition down while enhancing the educational experience of students.
The Parents Guild and event sponsors help underwrite the cost of the event so that student-sponsorships can be used to make improvements that directly benefit the students.
