Join Us for A Night of Impact!

A Night of Impact, presented by Orlando Health, is quickly approaching! Join us on Saturday, October 10th at the Orlando Marriott Lake Mary for an unforgettable evening that gives guests the red-carpet treatment while raising vital funds for Seminole County Public Schools. This incredible night will feature an exciting auction, dinner, and an inside look at the life-changing programs your support makes possible.

The need to help our students and be a reliable resource to our teachers is stronger than ever as costs for school supplies and basic essentials are on the rise. Proceeds from this event go directly toward helping students in need, enhancing career/tech education programs, providing teacher grants, and more to ensure that every student has the tools they need to succeed.

Secure your spot today! Seats and sponsorships are filling quickly and you won't want to miss out on this opportunity to support our students and teachers!

Summer Supply Drive

Our Tools 4 Seminole Schools' Annual Supply Drive is running now through September 14th. Whether you want to host a summer team builder, buy online with our virtual supply drive, or wait until the clearance sales at local retailers in September, you'll be providing essential school supplies to keep our shelves stocked all year long! Here are some easy ways to help:

Organize a traditional supply drive collecting school supplies at your business.
Participate in our Virtual Supply Drive.
Make a financial donation and we'll leverage funds to purchase supplies at deep discounts.

AdventHealth Supports Stem Education

Thanks to AdventHealth’s continued investment in STEM education, Seminole County Public Schools' Physics Bus program is bringing hands-on science learning directly to elementary students across the district.

Through support of the Mechanics Bus, Optics Bus, and now as the Presenting Sponsor of the Electricity Physics Bus with a $50,000 investment, AdventHealth is helping fourth and fifth graders build critical math and science skills while inspiring future STEM success.

Their generosity is helping thousands of students discover the excitement of science through interactive learning experiences.

Have You Heard?

Continuing their generous multi-year partnership, the Andrew and Dorothy Cochrane Foundation is providing new funding in 2026 for Seminole County Public Schools’ ESOL programs. The grant supplies specialized language tools and resources to English Language Learners, breaking down learning barriers and driving educational equity across the district.

Thank you for your continued support over the years!

Our Take Stock in Children team kicked off the school year with their seniors at the Back to School Workshop!

Seniors began working on the college application process with their mentors, learned more about career pathways, and received tools to make their year a success.

Thank you to all of our incredible mentors who once again signed on for this commitment. We can't wait for another great year of mentor sessions!
