In Chicago, Laurel alumnae and their families volunteered at Cradles to Crayons, the largest national nonprofit dedicated to ending Children’s Clothing Insecurity. Together, their work will impact 240 children in the Chicago area.

In Cleveland, alumnae and their children braved the pouring rain to clear trees and plant new ones at the Nature Center at Shaker Lakes' Grow Not Mow site. This event celebrated both Sarah Lyman Day and National Public Lands Day.

For those unable to attend in person, we offered a virtual way to give back by supporting For the Flow, a nonprofit founded by Laurel Senior Natalia Navarro ’25. Dedicated to eradicating period poverty in Northeast Ohio, For the Flow focuses on action, advocacy, and education.

These collective acts of kindness demonstrate the power of the Laurel alumnae network to make a difference in their communities, near and far. Thank you to all who participated this year—you truly embody the spirit of service that Sarah Lyman Day represents.
