Adopt-a-Chick Fundraiser

Support Our School Chick Program!

$25.00
I’m EGG-cited to adopt a chick!
Since 2010, Ground Education has incubated and hatched hundreds of chicks for our kindergarten and 5th grade garden lessons; creating a farm-like experience that teaches students about life-cycles, animal traits and adaptations, ecosystems, and the synergy of everything in nature. Each spring, school communities can hardly wait for the baby chicks to arrive–holding a warm, fuzzy chick is the highlight of the year, inspiring awe and joy. Last year we introduced 300 baby chicks, and this year we anticipate needing 400 to teach all 6,300 students. 
Our students’ fondest memories in the garden are interacting with the baby chicks, one they carry with them for the rest of their lives. Please help us sustain our Spring Chick Hatch experience for years to come!

Hatching and caring for baby chicks is no yolk 🤣 It takes the entire Ground Ed team to provide the love, care, and attention they need. As our program continues to grow, your support is vital.

Have we beaked 🐣 your interest?

Just $25 lets you symbolically adopt and name a baby chick. Our goal is to raise $10,000 to fund our
Spring Chick Hatch and school visits.

Your support will help:
  • Purchase fertilized eggs ready for incubation
  • Power our incubators and warming lights
  • Purchase feed and bedding that baby chicks need to thrive
  • Support chick care from our team 
Here are the pecks….er, perks:
  • A link to our Live Chick Cam so you can witness the adorable peepers hatch and play 
  • A picture of your adopted chick with its new name, chosen by you!
  • A special invite to meet some baby chicks in person
