Thank you for giving to the TOPS Equity Fund.  

The Equity Fund was created in 2022 to more closely align TOPS fundraising practices with our social justice mission. It is one way we can deepen our commitment to equitable resource allocation across Seattle schools.  Our vision is that all schools are able to fund the enrichment activities and educational support that meet the needs of the students.

The money donated this year to the Equity Fund will be distributed 50% to Southeast Seattle Schools Fundraising Alliance which represents 15 schools in District 7 focussing on collaborative fundraising, equitable allocation, and community collaboration; and 50% to Lowell Elementary PTA, a neighboring school that has expressed interest in furthering a relationship with TOPS.
