Mission Statement
As the primary fundraising organization for the Larkspur-Corte Madera School District, SPARK helps to ensure our students receive an exceptional education by supporting an impressive variety and depth of programs. Run mostly by parent volunteers, SPARK raises money for programs that are not funded by state and local resources. SPARK supports teacher salaries and benefits plus supplies and materials for Music, Art, Science/Technology Engineering/Robotics and Wellness/Counseling at our three schools: The Cove, Neil Cummins and Hall Middle School. The Foundation does this by raising $1.5M annually – nearly 6% of the District’s operating budget primarily through donations to Annual Giving, fundraising events and community business partnership program. Our schools count on SPARK and SPARK counts on you!
About This Cause
SPARK, the Larkspur-Corte Madera Schools Foundation, is a non-profit 501(c)(3) education foundation. For more than 40 years, SPARK has raised tens of millions of dollars to supplement our limited school budgets by helping to address the gap between what Larkspur-Corte Madera families wanted for their children and what state and local funding provided. SPARK raises over $1.5M per year for three schools: Neil Cummins, Hall and The Cove through Annual Giving, business partnerships and fundraising events. Each of these is critical to providing the funding needed to keep vital programs offered through our schools. The dedication and hard work of our SPARK Board is what makes SPARK fundraising activities and community-building events possible. SPARK funding makes the difference between merely a solid education and an excellent one.
