Support Lapham & Marquette Elementary Schools

Jen Corbett is organizing this fundraiser to benefit Marquette Lapham Parent Teacher Group Inc.

Tax deductible

Madison’s near east side is fortunate to have schools like Lapham and Marquette that provide high-quality learning for our neighborhood’s children. For years, the Lapham Marquette Parent Teacher Group has been an integral organization supporting our schools by uniting families, school staff, and the greater community.

“The PTG generously funded a Mobile Switch Station providing switch-adapted toys and assistive technology to Lapham students. Exploration of adapted toys allows all of our students to grow and learn alongside their friends who have some physical limitations.”

-Katie Murphy, Lapham Occupational Therapist

The PTG asks for your donation towards our $10,000 goal to continue supporting school programs for elementary students.

As our schools, and others across the country, face ongoing budget challenges, the role of Lapham Marquette’s PTG is more crucial than ever to bolster our local schools. We provide a place for caregivers to come together to give extra support to students, teachers, and families, ensuring that school staff feels supported, that classrooms have needed resources, and that all families can meet basic needs.

This annual appeal is our single biggest opportunity to ensure we will be able to support a range of programs for the 2025-2026 academic year, which includes:

School gardens and outdoor education programs
Teacher & staff appreciation programs
Special Project Grants, like classroom resources and field trips
Mutual aid for short-term care including rent assistance for at-risk families
Community-building events like the Welcome Coffee for new families
School pride t-shirts for every incoming student

Our PTG is committed to equitable and inclusive efforts, helping to ensure that every student in our dynamic community benefits from the programs, connection, and learning experiences offered by Lapham and Marquette schools.

Please consider a tax-deductible donation, of any size. The PTG greatly appreciates your generous support and the commitment to our schools.

Thank you,

Lapham Marquette PTG Board
