Fund-A-Need provides a place for the donors to connect with the needs in the classroom. Lincoln Public Schools teachers use Fund-A-Need to promote the ideas and needs of their students. Individual donors browse through the proposals and select a proposal they want to fund.

To ensure the accountability of Fund-A-Need, the Foundation for Lincoln Public Schools works closely with LPS to review all proposals. The Foundation provides the fiscal responsibility for individuals and corporations to give private funds with confidence to the Lincoln Public Schools. Donors receive thank you notes from the classroom and a receipt from the Foundation for their sponsorship.

"We learned about Fund-a-Need at a Foundation for Lincoln Public Schools
meeting and thought it would be great to use this as a way to
give a gift and support teachers in our schools at the same time."
--Bill and Mae Whitmer, Donors to Fund-a-Need
