Caring & Sharing
Did you know?
Approximately 60 Laurel families are in need this year for the holidays
Almost 80 students need help through our scholarship program
Mission: The Caring & Sharing program mission is to help children and families who may need extra assistance at Laurel School. Caring & Sharing programs range from providing scholarships for after school programs and field trips, to holiday drives to collect funds, grocery cards, and gifts to distribute during the holidays.
Programs: Caring & Sharing has ongoing programs the entire year that include:
- Thanksgiving Drive - Feed a Laurel Family - a drive to collect funds and gift cards needed to provide grocery cards to Laurel families in need at Thanksgiving
- Holiday Giving Tree - a gift-giving opportunity for the Laurel community to support our Laurel families in need at the holidays
- Scholarship Program - a program to help provide Spirit Wear, school pictures, books from Book Fair (including a bookcase building event), after-school programs, and yearbooks to students in need
Donations: It costs roughly $200 to sponsor a scholarship for one child for the year, but a donation of any amount will help a child in the Caring & Sharing program.

All donations collected from now until December 31st will go into the general PTO fund, of which $15,000 is budgeted for Caring and Sharing expenses. If donations fall short of the $15,000 budget, it will be supplemented by the general PTO funds. If donations exceed the expense amount, such excess will remain in the general PTO fund.
