An Independent School • Grades 5-12

Every gift counts.

Your support sustains all that makes Lakeside exceptional.

Philanthropy at Lakeside is about care, generosity, and connection. From Lakeside’s founding over a century ago to today, a spirit of giving has characterized the school community.

When you give through Lakeside, you make possible the people and experiences that shape students’ lives: inspiring teachers, financial aid for one-third of our students, and the academics, arts, and athletics that are core to every student’s experience. Every gift matters, regardless of the size, because it is a tangible show of care.

We strive for broad participation, knowing that when our community comes together in support of Lakeside, the impact is profound. Parents and guardians also support the ROAR auction, which benefits both the Lakeside Fund and the Parents and Guardians Association.

Your generosity strengthens Lakeside today and for generations to come; it is a testament to optimism, to joy, and to the enduring hope that our students will go on to make a difference in the world.

Thank you for all the ways you give through Lakeside.
