Lakeside Fund Day

Lakeside Fund Day is a 24-hour giving event to support Lakeside students! This virtual event invites alums, parents, guardians, employees, grandparents, and friends to come together, give back, and celebrate what matters most at Lakeside.

Lakeside Fund Day starts at noon PST on April 2, 2025 and runs until noon PST on April 3, 2025.

Every gift, of every size, makes a difference for the Lakeside community. Lakeside Fund Day is all about Lions coming together to build a strong culture of giving.

Philanthropy is a crucial source of funding for Lakeside School. Your gift provides operating dollars that can be immediately directed to the school’s most pressing needs in the areas you choose to support. Tuition and endowment income alone do not cover the full cost of a Lakeside education. In fact, the cost of educating a single student exceeds tuition by $16,000. Philanthropy closes this gap, covering 30% of Lakeside’s annual operating budget, and is vital for sustaining and improving the school’s programs.

Gifts made on the Lakeside Fund Day should appear on the donor’s credit card similar to LAKESIDE SCHOOL DONATION HTTPSWWW.LAKESIDE CA. For donors who give via Venmo it will appear as BoostMySchool.

Matching gifts and challenges add an exciting element to Lakeside Fund Day. Generous donors have made special gifts to create inspiration for new gifts to be made during the 24-hour virtual giving event. Donors have allocated specific amounts that “unlock” when certain thresholds are met.
