Lake Washington Schools Foundation | Invest in students. Invest in our future.

Our Thanks”Giving” Food Drive is On!

While state and federal supports are increasingly uncertain, we are steadfast in working to serve as a reliable resource for our community. Through our Pantry Packs program, LWSF provides weekend food packs to food-insecure students across the Lake Washington School District—ensuring that no child has to worry about their next meal.

You can make a difference by contributing to our Fall Food Drive in two ways:

Donating directly to our Amazon Wish List
Delivering your food donations in person to our warehouse (14816 NE 95th St – Bldg 6, Redmond, WA) on the following dates:
- Nov 12, 2–4pm
- Nov 13, 10am–1pm
- Nov 19, 10am–12pm
- Dec 3, 2–4pm or 6–8pm
- Dec 6, 10am–12pm

Not sure what to give? Check out our Kid-Friendly Food List for the most needed items. Every can, box, and pouch you donate helps ensure that students return to school on Mondays nourished and ready to learn.

Thank You for Stepping Up for Students

We are truly blown away by the generosity of our community during our All in for Kids campaign. Together, you helped raise over $100,000 to support students who rely on weekend food from our Pantry Packs program.

As many families continue to recover from the effects of the recent government shutdown and reductions in government assistance, your contributions help keep Pantry Packs going strong throughout the school year. If you’d like to continue making a difference, you can donate here.
