 Lake Oswego Schools Foundation Day of Giving - April 29!

Wednesday, April 29 is LOSF Day of Giving, where families, community members, and businesses are invited to support the transformative power of strong teachers and enriching classes for our students.

Our goal is to have 75% participation at each school to support teaching positions. Every gift – whether $5 or $5,000 – helps strengthen our schools, our students, and our community. Together, we can make a difference.

Laura Coyle, Director of Legal Operations at Sift Discovery, LLC, has supported the Lake Oswego Schools Foundation since 2019. As a parent of a seventh grader at Lake Oswego Middle School, she values strong educators and enriched programs.

I support the Foundation because I want every student to have access to exceptional teachers and opportunities,” Laura says. As Board President, she helps fund additional teaching positions and programs that benefit students across the district.

Outside of work, Laura enjoys Sundays with her son during football season, cheering for the Seattle Seahawks. We’re grateful for Laura and all our board members whose leadership helps keep Lake Oswego schools among the best in Oregon.

Phone-athon 2026 - Volunteer Sign Ups Now Open!

Our biggest fundraiser of the year is the annual Phone-athon, and we rely on volunteers for its success.

  • T-Th, Oct. 13 to 15
  • 4:30–7:30 p.m. each evening
  • Food & soft drinks provided

The Phone-athon plays a critical role in supporting our schools, nearly 50% of the Foundation’s annual donations come from these three evenings alone. Those funds directly support teaching positions and help ensure students across the district have access to the programs, resources, and opportunities that make LOSD exceptional.

 

The more volunteers we have, the more parents we can reach. The more parents we reach the more money we can raise to support teaching positions.

 

Sign up, bring a friend, and help us show what our community can do together.
