Olson “Give” List
Do your kids already have too many toys? Do you want to teach your child about the value of giving while also providing a birthday gift for another child? Consider replacing the “gift” list for your next birthday party with the Olson “Give” List.
Here’s how it works:
Stay tuned for more opportunities to give back to Olson throughout the upcoming school year! If you’d like to donate to the Olson Give List in a way other than through Amazon, drop off your items in the school office for Lynne Steiner with a note that they are for the Olson Give List.
*If your family could use help providing birthday gifts, contact Lynne Steiner, School Social Worker at (608) 442-2607 or lmsteiner@madison.k12.wi.us.

Here’s how it works:
- Provide the Olson “Give” List on your birthday party invitations: https://amzn.com/w/25LPU1UFIJF81
- Ask guests to purchase a gift from the list rather than bringing a gift to the party
- Gift-buyers should select “Olson Give List's Gift Registry Address” as the shipping address
- Gifts are shipped to Lynne Steiner, Olson School Social Worker
- Families in need at Olson can choose from the gifts to provide a birthday present for their child
