How can you support LEEF?
Please donate a minimum of $250 for each Lincoln student in your household. We can accept cash donations. Some families may not be able to donate the full amount; please donate as you are able, as all contributions are needed. We ask families without financial hardship to please contribute the full amount.
Please download the Donor Information Sheet (PDF) and send your donation to Lincoln School. All donations are confidential and tax-deductible.

What is an employee corporate matching grant?
Many companies will match their employees' donations up to 100%. This is an easy way to double your contribution to LEEF. If both parents work for companies with matching gifts programs, you may be able to triple your donation! Click here for a list of several participating corporations (PDF). Matching grant application procedures vary by company. Contact your HR representative or check your employer's website for more information.
