Jog-a-thon
The Madera Elementary Foundation (MEF) hosts the annual Jog-a-thon, a fun and active way to raise funds for enrichment programs like Music, Garden, Reading Support, Assemblies, Field Trips, Puberty Education, and more!
​
This is the one fundraiser where kids take the lead—supporting their school, engaging with friends and family, and getting exercise, all while earning exciting prizes. It’s a win-win-win! The event typically takes place on a Friday in October.
Check out this video from our 2024 Jog-a-Thon to see the fun in action!
