On October 4, 2025 the Suffield Elementary PTO (parent-teacher organization), a registered nonprofit organization, will host its first Color Run fundraising event for elementary school families Students will run the course and get “color blasted” with cornstarch-based dust (non-toxic, biodegradable).

Students have spent the last few weeks fundraising on their individual online pages to help the PTO provide students with enrichment activities throughout the school year and to provide school staff with much deserved appreciation. It’s not too late for local businesses to jump in and sponsor our event! We have four sponsorship levels to choose from, but welcome donations of any amount:
