Supporting the Future: Shawnee Mission LaSertoma Donates Backpacks and School Supplies to Growing Futures Early Education Center

This June, Shawnee Mission LaSertoma had the privilege of donating backpacks and school supplies to the incredible team at Growing Futures Early Education Center. We’re proud to support the next generation of learners and the educators who help them thrive.

The children’s smiles and gratitude warmed our hearts, reminding us why our mission—to serve our community and invest in its future—is so meaningful.

We received a heartfelt thank-you note from Growing Futures, expressing their appreciation for our $1,200 donation. Their words of gratitude reaffirm our shared commitment to making a difference in the lives of families throughout Johnson County.

As Growing Futures prepares to celebrate its 60th anniversary in 2025, we’re honored to be part of their journey and to continue supporting their vital work in early childhood education. Please consider following their social media and joining in their year-long celebration.

Thank you, Growing Futures, for all that you do. Together, we’re making a lasting impact—one backpack, one child, and one act of kindness at a time.
