Together We Are Champions with GiveBIG – May 4 & 5

GiveBIG is here! You can be a hero for a Shoreline student in need. We invite you to join this two-day statewide giving campaign that runs today and tomorrow.

In 2020, the Foundation granted more than $300,000 in scholarships and emergency aid to Shoreline students. The need for assistance remains at an all-time high. Your gift can help our students stay in school by assisting them with emergency aid to cover tuition and expenses.

As Shoreline faculty and staff members, you see first-hand that the need for our students is greater than ever due to COVID-19. While we are ensuring our health and safety by physical distancing, we continue to come together in meaningful ways. Please GiveBIG today and thank you!
