Graduate Grams (aka “Grad Grams”) are a wonderful Mercer Island tradition. For the past 30 years, Islanders have been sending Grad Grams congratulating their special graduates. Grad Grams are $6 each before the May 20th deadline, and $7 each after the May 20th deadline. The grams include a personalized greeting to any graduate from 12th, 8th, 5th grade, Kindergarten, and Preschool. All grads love to receive these maroon-on-parchment greetings, each one hand-prepared, personalized, and sent directly to the graduate’s home.

All proceeds benefit the Mercer Island Community Scholarship Program, which has been in existence for over 40 years. Your contribution supports scholarship funds for 27 students, with awards of up to $500 each, for future educational expenses. Scholarship recipients demonstrate perseverance, a passion for learning, a team-player mentality, and are positive contributors to their classroom and community.
