Kathleen Wolters Scholarship

Each year the MLEF awards a $1000 scholarship to a MLHS student. The student is chosen by the faculty. The 2023 scholarship was awarded to Aaron Caso.

Fundraising Events

In 2020, the MLEF raised $70,000 for the Mountain Lakes School District by raffling off a brand new Mercedes (pictured below with Superintendent of Schools Michael Fetherman).

Our MLEF Annual Spring Gala is hotly anticipated by the Mountain Lakes community year after year. It brings together over 100 local businesses and sponsors for an unforgettable evening of food, drink, dancing, Vegas-style gaming, and unique auction items.

Below are moments from the 2023 Derby Night, which raised $70k for Macro and Micro Grants.
