“GIVING BACK LOCALLY AND GLOBALLY”

Spring Zing is our biggest fundraiser. It is our continued mission to make a difference in the lives of children both locally and globally. We will use the funds raised by this year’s event to:

*Support educational activities at Shady Grove through the Home and School Association. Proceeds from this event help to fund events such as assemblies, Science Night, playground equipment, technology, and much more!

*Support Inter-Faith Housing Alliance, a local organization helping families fight homelessness.

*Provide school supplies to the children who attend Shady Grove Ethiopia, (a school built with the proceeds of the 3rd and 4th Annual Spring Zings) via Save the Children Federation.
