2026 Dash-A-Thon

It’s Go Time, Dashers!

Earlier today, the Robert & Marie Hansen Family Fine Arts Theatre was aroar with students as they kicked off the biggest student-led fundraiser of the year: Dash-a-Thon!

This year, students will work together in hopes to raise $90,000 – about $150 per Dasher – to support DSHA’s outstanding college-prep academics, Campus Ministry programming, and athletics. Fundraising kicks off today and culminates in Dash-a-Thon, a celebratory, costumed walk through our campus neighborhood, on September 30.

Like last year, students will be competing in their Salvatorian Family Houses. The winning group will earn valuable points for their House, a Gilles sundae bar, and a week out of uniform! Together, the girls will work toward exciting incentives, including Movie Day the day before Thanksgiving and an extended Thanksgiving break (no school on Monday, November 30!).

How to Give

When you make your gift online, you’ll be prompted to choose the House affiliated with your Dasher. If you’re unsure, you can always select Unknown, and a member of our DSHA team will confirm based on the student name you provide.

A few reminders for parents:

• Donations must be received by 9 pm on Tuesday, September 29.

• All students are expected to participate in the Dash-a-Thon walk on Wednesday, September 30. Students who are unable to walk or have an athletic excuse will be asked to help in another way. Parents/guardians of those not walking must sign the non-walking form available in Room 316, Dash-a-Thon Coordinator and Academic Interventionist Katie Leszczynski’s room. Forms must be completed by Monday, September 28.

Thank you so much for your support!
