Willow Glen Elementary

Walkathon

The Walkathon is one of the biggest fundraisers for the WGE PTA. This event has brought in over $55k to help fund enrichment programs like Recess 101, Art in Action and Settle Science. Our goal for the 2026 Walkathon is to raise $75k. This pledge drive gets the students involved in raising money themselves and has some really great individual, class and school wide prizes for them to strive for. Learn more about the programs funded by the PTA on the Programs & Events page.
