We appreciate our Ivy Hall Staff - and volunteers who make it happen
Last week, we showered the Ivy Hall PTO Staff with a week of treats, meals and surprises. Special thanks goes to Nora Fellowes & Crystal Levin who coordinated all of the efforts, along with the many volunteers who helped setup, pickup and drop off items to make this week a success. It’s a small world, after all!

ONGOING FUNDRAISERS
Join North Shore Plant Club and support Ivy Hall PTO
Support our ongoing fundraiser in partnership with North Shore Plant Club. The North Shore Plant Club’s mission is to make gardening more accessible to the community. You can purchase a wide range of plants at almost wholesale prices. Ivy Hall PTO will receive a portion of your purchase.
Joining the club is free and gives you access to great prices, a huge selection of plants that arrive fresh from the growers, while shopping from the convenience of your home. When you join North Shore Plant Club and purchase a plant using our special link, 5% of the proceeds will go to Ivy Hall PTO.
You, friends, family and neighbors will be able to order 15 different times between April and October and support the fundraiser. There are Plant Club pick up locations in Buffalo Grove (near the Prairie View Metra Station), Barrington, Glenview, Deerfield, Lake Forest, Libertyville, Naperville, Skokie/Evanston, Wilmette and Winnetka.
