Fundraising

Oak Bay Preschool is a charitable organization that relies on fundraising proceeds and grants for day-to-day operation, and to keep fees reasonable for families. A parent-run Fundraising Committee organizes fundraising initiatives.

Annual Christmas Tree Sale and Bake Sale

A staple fundraiser for the preschool! We sell locally grown Douglas Fir trees and the school parents all provide a baked good to sell by donation.

Mario Labonte Mural

Generously donated by local artist Mario Labonte, the preschool has a beautiful mural with a west coast landscape, painted at the entryway of the school. As an ongoing fundraising project, parents can donate $50 to the school to have their child’s handprint become one of the flowers in the painting!
