Shop on Amazon to Benefit Stevenson's Give-A-Thon

Money can also be donated online to benefit Stevenson High School's annual giving project.

Stevenson High School has introduced new ways to assist with Give-A-Thon, its annual all-school fundraiser that benefits suburban families in need, according to the Daily Digest.

Financial donations can be made through the school’s Web Store. In addition, Amazon.com shoppers who use this link will have a portion of their receipts donated to the Give-A-Thon.

Give-A-Thon has three main goals: provide holiday gifts for Lake County families in need; donate enough food to stock the Vernon Township food pantry for one year; and donate six months’ worth of diapers, baby formula and youth motherhood items to Society for Preservation of Human Dignity in Palatine.

Give-A-Thon is led by Stevenson’s National Honor Society chapter.
