Focused Fundraising
Last year the PTC was successful in raising over $35,000.00 to enhance our students’ learning experience and directly support NECS classrooms. The PTC minimizes the ‘ask’ of parents, by holding a couple of large, focused fundraisers throughout the year, and spending more of our time giving back!

This year we will run in stalled heats (about 15-20 students at a time.) Each group will start 45-60 seconds behind the other heat to decrease race congestion. We won't have some 60+ students begin at the same time. They can take multiple laps if wanted. The course will be set up to avoid congestion at the entrance and exit. We will have an area designated "cheer" area for spectators.

Annual Knights Color Run
Our Annual Color Run Raises over $32,000!
​
Thank you to all who participated! What an incredible event for our Knights and fundraising for our school. This event raised 95% of the PTC yearly budget. We couldn't have done it without all our incredible volunteers and support from the Newcastle Staff. Leading up to the run, students ask for sponsorships from friends, family, and businesses for their participation.
We choose to throw thank you events throughout the year that are free to our Knights family and focus our fundraising on one yearly event.
​
Thank you for your continued support; we couldn't do it without you.

Giving Campaign
The Giving Campaign is a simple and straightforward fundraiser in which families simply donate directly to the PTC without any further obligation to sell, buy, or participate! Donations can be made anytime throughout the year, however, there are a couple of targeted giving dates that will be promoted.
​
Donations can be made by check or cash and given to your child’s teacher, or on this website by clicking the "Donate" Icon on the header or footer of each page.
Business Sponsorships
The PTC counts on the generosity of many local businesses for financial support. Last year alone, business sponsorships for the Color Run totaled over $3,000.00, along with valuable non-monetary donations of products and services. Businesses can choose from various sponsorship levels, all offering business promotions to NECS families. With the use of year-round social media posts for our sponsors. In addition, a spot on our website for one year. NECS families are encouraged to use sponsoring businesses when in need of goods or services.
