How many drops of water fit on a penny? I bet your first grader knows! Want to know who is this year's artist focus? Just ask a McGaugh student! These are some of the many things our students have explored already in our STEM and Art labs. And it’s because of generous donations from the families and businesses who support Project SEEK.
One of the easiest ways to donate is by becoming a Sea Lion Sponsor. 100% of your donation will go to Art & STEM at McGaugh, and these donations will enable the students at McGaugh to:
Employee matching gift programs are a great way to make your donation go even further! Most companies will match an employee’s gift to a charity one-to-one, but others match gifts two-to-one, and some even match donations three-to-one! This means that your gift to a charity can be worth two to four times as much as you donate. Maximize the impact of your donation to Project SEEK by checking to see if your employer matches charitable gifts. Visit Charity Navigator to access their free search tool.
