Leadership Circle Categories
Leadership Circle honors families who show extraordinary commitment to supporting our schools financially by giving $3,500 or more during the school year. Families may qualify for Leadership Circle through an outright gift, by more than one gift during the school year (with all gifts totaling $3,500 or more) or through an outright gift matched by a corporate matching gift (with a combined total of $3,500 or more).
Unless you request that your gift(s) be anonymous, we will recognize four levels of outstanding commitment to our schools:

Every Leadership Circle gift makes a profound difference for our schools. Please consider if your family can contribute at this level, and give as generously as you are able.
Donations to PiE are fully tax deductible as allowed by law and no goods or services are received by the donor in return for their gift. Donations are distributed on a per-pupil basis and not allocated to a specific student.
