💛 Support our island’s kids! 🍋 On Wednesday, August 20 from 1:30–3:30, lemonade stands will be popping up all around San Juan Island—Roche Harbor, Fox Hall, in town, along San Juan Valley Rd, Beaverton Valley Rd, near Snug Harbor, Cattle Point, and more.

Every cup helps the San Juan Public Schools Foundation fund books, supplies, and big projects like a new playground for the Early Learning Center. Come sip, smile, and support our students!

And if you can’t come out for lemonade, you can still donate here: https://www.sjpsf.org/support-education/donate-now/

Thank you to our awesome community!

Who’s heading this up and how can we help?!

The San Juan Island Community Foundations 2025 SJI Cares Campaign is LIVE — and this year, we’re rallying our island community to support a brand-new playground for our youngest learners!

Construction is already underway at the Early Learning Center — transforming what was once a dirt patch with rocks into a safe, inclusive space for the preschoolers in our Transition to Kindergarten (TTK) and Developmental PreK (DPK) programs.

We still need to raise the final $7,530 to keep the work going and finish this vital project before the school year begins — and we need YOUR help to make it happen. Thank you to everyone who has already donated!

💛 Give now and help us complete a playground where our kids can learn, grow, and play for years to come!

📅 Save the Dates! August 14 – 17!

The San Juan Island Community Foundations 2025 SJI Cares Campaign is launching soon — and this year, we’re rallying our island community to support a brand-new playground for our youngest learners! 

The Early Learning Center playground is in urgent need of renovation. Right now, it’s little more than a dirt patch with rocks — unsafe and unusable for the preschoolers in our Transition to Kindergarten (TTK) and Developmental PreK (DPK) programs.
We’re working with partners and donors to raise the final $10,000 needed to complete this vital project before the school year begins — and we’ll need YOUR help to make it happen.

Stay tuned for more details and ways to give — together, we can build a safe, inclusive space where our kids can learn, grow, and play for years to come.
