Wolfie Games 2026

Wolfie Games is Buford Elementary's ONLY fundraiser of the year. Our students are working hard to get donations for their class, and they’re fired up about raising money for their school while earning weekly prizes along the way! Last year's donations benefited a new playground, which is loved by all our wolves!

✨ This year, our proceeds will go toward more playground equipment! ✨

Why is this so important?

• A well-maintained, updated playground helps our wolves run, climb, and explore in a safe, fun environment.
• New equipment brings innovative features that make play more exciting and adventurous.
• Active play supports a healthier, happier student body—because strong bodies make strong minds!
• Every donation, big or small, brings us closer to giving our kids the playground they deserve. Imagine their faces lighting up when they see brand-new equipment waiting for them at recess! 🎉
