Annual Giving Campaign
Each year, our Annual Giving Campaign raises money to support the General Fund, which benefits every student at LJHS and offers the most flexibility for directing resources to our school's greatest needs. Our goal is 100% participation from our families. No amount is too small. Every dollar counts. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation of any size.
We have many ways to donate - credit/debit card, check, PayPal, Zelle. See below for details. Don't forget about company match programs, as well as donations of appreciated stock or from your Donor Advised Fund or IRA (if 70.5 years+).

Donate Appreciated Stock
If you’ve held shares for over a year and they’ve appreciated since purchase, consider a donation of appreciated stock. Tax benefits may include avoiding paying capital gains taxes or claiming a deduction for the full fair market value of donated stock if taxes are itemized.**
