What is the Trash-A-Thon?
College Park Nursery School celebrates Earth Month by hosting its annual Trash-A-Thon fundraiser, inviting families and community members to come together to clean up litter in our neighborhood and contribute to our school.
The Trash-A-Thon teaches our students about taking care of the environment, and helps us raise much needed funds for our school.
Why A Trash-A-Thon?
It’s a school fundraiser
We are a 501(c)3 nonprofit school and this is our biggest fundraiser of the year. Trash-A-Thon donations go to the Greatest Needs Fund, primarily supporting our financial assistance program while providing flexibility to address other critical needs.
It’s a service project
In honor of Earth Month, our students, families and team members serve and beautify the Earth and our local community by cleaning up litter in our neighborhood in downtown College Park.
It’s a community event
We welcome our College Park Nursery School students, alumni, families, friends and neighbors to join us in picking up litter and to celebrate Earth Month with us at the Trash-A-Thon Bash!
Saving the earth, one trash bag at a time.
Our students are suiting up to save the earth on April 5th, 2025. Will YOU be our sidekicks?
What Are We Fundraising For?
All donations to the 2025 Trash-A-Thon will go to our Greatest Needs Fund, primarily supporting our financial assistance program while providing flexibility to address other critical needs.
