Contributions to Friends of Shanklin are always appreciated.
Grants and donated funds are used to support Shanklin's existing programs, to offer new learning opportunities to the children, as well as to provide a more positive learning environment at the school.
Backpacks and School Supplies
Friends of Shanklin collects school supplies and backpacks in August of each year to be sure that all students have the materials they need for a positive school experience.
Book Giveaways
Friends of Shanklin's donations of new books to the school's existing spring book fair guarantee that every Shanklin child can go home with a new book for the summer.
​
Friends of Shanklin has recently expanded this giveaway to 2x per year, once in the fall and again in the spring.
​
Many thanks to St. Marks and the Junior Service League of Beaufort for generous grants awarded to FOS to help fund these Book Giveaways!
​
Leadership
Students who exhibit strong leadership characteristics throughout the year receive personal recognition at the end of the school year.
2023 Graduates from Battery Creek HS return to inspire Shanklin students.
Instructional Resources
The challenges of reading, writing, and math improvement are hard enough but much more difficult without appropriate materials. Friends of Shanklin's donations for teaching resources --manuals, books, workbooks, manipulatives, etc. -- provide the school staff with some of the necessary tools to instruct students.
Teacher Appreciation
Friends of Shanklin hosts a light breakfast at the beginning and end of the year for teachers to thank them for their hard work and efforts throughout the year.
