We need your support!

There’s no place like St. Luke’s Day School

The Book Fair at St. Luke’s Day School is one of two major annual fundraisers for the school. We are excited for this special multi tiered event to enhance the magic of the Christmas season for our SLDS children and families, while endorsing the school with our financial support. Your donation will ensure our school remains a nurturing and enriching place where young children can play and learn together every day!

Our goal this year

is to raise

$42,000

Your gift to Bear’s Big Book Fair will enable funding for staff professional development, school-wide literacy initiatives, and children’s scholarships – activities tuition alone cannot provide. As a result, our children benefit from valuable resources and ever-improving opportunities for their social, emotional, physical, intellectual, and spiritual growth. Underwriting donations make up 75% of the total funds raised; our commitment to support the Day School through the Book Fair is as important now as ever.

Please consider donating as outlined below. In appreciation of your donation, your names will be recognized on the Book Fair website and in printed materials.

* For donations $250+, a book will be placed in your honor in the St. Luke’s Library.

*All contributions are tax deductible and can be made online or by check.
