Milgate Primary School
2025 Fun Run
FUNDRAISING CASE STUDY
Milgate Primary School partnered with Go Raise It to power their 2025 Fun Run fundraiser, building on the success of their previous event with the platform. With a clear vision to enhance students’ school experiences, Milgate set out to raise funds to replace the Green Equipment and build new Cubby Houses. These improvements are intended to create vibrant, collaborative outdoor spaces that foster creativity, social interaction, and active play.
Go Raise It’s online fundraising process enabled Milgate to quickly mobilise its community, allowing families and their wider network to donate online with ease. Students participated in the Fun Run, sought online sponsorships, and came together in a school-wide celebration to launch the year with energy and enthusiasm.
