The Foundations for Learning | Community Involvement

Community Involvement

At Foundations For Learning we believe that community involvement benefits both the charities/organizations that we support and the students/ families in our school. By encouraging young children and their families to participate in our outreach efforts we strive to:

Create meaningful connections with community members
Teach a sense of responsibility
Teach students that one person can make a difference
Teach tolerance and know that diverse individuals can be united by common cause
Help students learn early job skills (counting money, organizing activities, and working as a team)
Provide services and materials to those in need

Foundations For Learning in the COMMUNITY:

We participate and support many local and national charities. Some of our outreach efforts include:

Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation Research

We put together a teacup raffle with prizes donated by local businesses, a concession stand run by students, games run by teachers, demonstrations by local performers, and information booths from local organizations.

Disaster Relief Donation Collection
No Freeze Shelter Donation
TOYS FOR TOTS Drop-off site
Donation center for the Hockanum Valley Food Pantry
