What Laurelmead Employee Education Fund Aka Leef does
Mission
The activities include raising funds by soliciting contributions from residents at laurelmead cooperative, inc. (laurelmead), and in the vicinity of laurelmead. Applications for scholarships or grants are invited from employees of laurelmead and their children.

Grants may not be made to benefit laurelmead, such as for recruitment of new employees, retention of existing employees or to compensate or reward employees. Activities are conducted at laurelmead and its vicinity and there may be periodic fund drives and application periods designated in each calendar year.
