WOW!
That’s our reaction to the success of the 14th Annual Nourish Every Mind Luncheon. On May 10, 1,000 guests filled every inch of the Issaquah Community Center and raised a whopping $650,000 in support of our students and schools. This generosity will allow the Foundation to contribute to the District’s new Elementary Literacy Adoption, fully fund our roster of current programs and expand our reach to explore new initiatives—including basic student needs, a pre-K summer school pilot, and increased STEM support for high schools among other great programs. THANK YOU to our Table Captains, sponsors?especially Swedish and Microsoft?guests, speakers and volunteers for making Nourish Every Mind a success.

If you missed the luncheon, please take a look at these fantastic videos shown during the event:
