Support William Walker

Fundraising

There are three ways to help fund a Wildcat: give directly, have your gift matched at work, or let your everyday shopping earn for William Walker. Most of what’s on this page costs you nothing beyond a few minutes of setup.

Give directly

Walkerthon is our big one.

Walkerthon is the PTC’s signature fall fundraiser — the whole school runs, laps get counted, and the community rallies behind our Wildcats. It shapes the budget for the entire year, so what we raise in September decides what we can fund through June.

Donate to Walkerthon

Give any amount through Zeffy. Zeffy charges the PTC nothing, so every dollar you give reaches William Walker students.

About Walkerthon

Double your gift

Your employer may match it.

Plenty of large employers match what their people give to schools, which turns a $50 donation into $100 at no extra cost to you. It is usually a short form on your company’s giving portal, and most families never think to check.

How to do it

  1. Donate through Zeffy and keep the emailed receipt.
  2. Open your company’s giving or volunteering portal.
  3. Search for William Walker PTC, or enter our tax ID 26-3542951.
  4. Submit the receipt. The match comes straight to the PTC.

Employers we know match

Adidas · Alaska Airlines · Apple · Columbia · Google · Intel · Kaiser · Microsoft · Nike

Not on the list? It is still worth a look, since many companies match and never advertise it. Email us if you need anything from the PTC to finish a form.

No extra cost

Earn for William Walker while you shop.

These programs send money to William Walker based on shopping you were going to do anyway. Each one takes a few minutes to set up once, then runs in the background.

Where it goes

Every dollar stays at William Walker.

The PTC is a parent- and staff-run 501(c)(3). What we raise pays for art literacy, field trips, classroom funds, staff appreciation, and the events that bring our community together — for every student enrolled at the school, not just the ones whose families can give.
