  • Donate to Lydia's Fund

    Lydia Lizhen Gray White, class of 2015, passed away in 2017. To honor her legacy of kindness, compassion, adventurous spirit, and love of children and reading, her family has established a fund in her memory. Through Lydia's Fund, you will provide things like books that allow students to listen and read along simultaneously, a feature that can be especially helpful for students with language-based learning differences. You will enable the Churchill library to update its collection of books to be more inclusive so that every student can see themselves reflected in literature. You will create experiences that bring students from all grades together to learn from one another. And you will make it possible for authors, illustrators, poets, and storytellers to visit with students, virtually and in person, to talk with them about things like their process, inspiration, and the many paths to publishing.

  • The Hawk's Nest

    The Hawk’s Nest is Churchill’s monthly giving program. Joining The Hawk’s Nest is a way for you to bring the power of self-confidence and possibility to the children of our community on a monthly basis. Making a one-time gift can be difficult. Being able to give monthly will allow you to support our students in a way that works for you and will remind you, on a regular basis, of the direct difference you are making in the life of a child.
