You can make a difference by donating today to The Suzanne Grant Foundation.

Suzanne Grant was a beloved resident of Mt Kisco, who was so many things to so many people. She volunteered endless hours to our community, local organizations and our school district and most recently was the co-owner of PORCH, a home and gift store in Mt Kisco. She could do anything and make it seem so simple. She always found room in her heart and almost impossibly, time in her schedule to help anyone who asked. She lived every minute of the day to the fullest, always putting family, friends, and community first. She was truly one of a kind. To honor Suzanne and to continue her passion for helping others and improving our community, The Suzanne Grant Foundation was created by her family and friends. Always motivated by the desire to make the world a better place, Suzanne leaves behind a legacy of warmth and generosity. Those who are inclined to follow her example can do so by making a contribution to her Foundation.

Fox Lane Community Volunteer Day

The Suzanne Grant Foundation, along with Fox Lane High School, has created a new initiative. It is, much like Suzanne, focused on our students and our local community.

Suzanne was about many things. At the top of that list was volunteerism. For those of you fortunate enough to know Suzanne, you'll recall the countless hours she spent in support of our schools and our local not-for-profit organizations. She volunteered her time to help our town, our neighbors, friends, and strangers. Giving back was part of her life.

We are proud to announce that beginning in May 2022 and continuing every school year into the future, a Fox Lane Community Volunteer Day will be established as a permanent part of the school calendar. Fox Lane High School, with support from The Suzanne Grant Foundation, will dedicate one school day for the Junior class as a day of volunteerism and learning in our local community. Organizations such as The Boys and Girls Club, The Mt Kisco Interfaith Food Pantry, Neighbors Link, Westmoreland Sanctuary, 914 Cares, our five elementary schools, and many others participate in the program and identify priority projects that are addressed by teams of Fox Lane students. Each student in the junior class, along with teachers who have also volunteered, has a choice of where they would like to spend their time that day. Together, we create indoor and outdoor volunteer opportunities for hundreds of students, and address needed priorities for over 20 different local organizations. We all gather back at school at the end of the day to share experiences, accomplishments, and a food truck feast! This year's program is scheduled for Friday, May 19.

The Suzanne Grant Theater

In September 2021, the new Suzanne Grant Theater was dedicated in Fox Lane Middle School. Every single student in our district spends time in this special space. It is home to musical concerts, theatrical performances, guest speakers, art shows, science fairs, readathons, community events, Board of Education meetings, and so much more.

The new Suzanne Grant Theater will benefit current elementary and middle school families as well as generations to come. Enhancements include an entirely new acoustic system, a black box theater design with retractable theater-style seating, more overall space and flexibility, upgraded lighting, new entrances, new flooring, a new grand piano, and other improvements.

The Suzanne Grant Foundation is a 501(c)(3) tax exempt organization with the IRS and donations are tax deductible to the extent allowed by law. The Foundation will provide donors with a receipt upon any donation.
