Canterbury's 2023 Marathon Raises Over $20,000 for Charity
On Tuesday, March 14, 2023, Canterbury School students, faculty, staff, and parents showcased their commitment to service during a special check presentation for their 39th Annual Marathon.
Marathon is a Canterbury tradition in which students run and walk to raise money for worthy causes. Canterbury selected The Heights Foundation and American Heart Association to receive funds from this year's annual event.
We are thankful to these organizations for working with us to educate our students about the great work they do in our community. The presentation by the American Heart Association about the importance of heart health and fitness tied in well with our focus on wellness. Our students also enjoyed learning about how the money they raised for The Heights Foundation will make a difference in the lives of other local children.
During the week of January 30th, students in the Lower School hit the track and racked up dozens of laps. Through their efforts, we are proud to announce that the Canterbury community raised a total of $20,121! Each charity will receive a donation of $10,060.50.
Canterbury School would like to send a special thank you to Canterbury parents and volunteers for their hard work organizing this great event.
