Please Give Today
Right now the students and families at the greatest risk need your help. 47.3% of LPS students receive free or reduced lunch, the equivalent of nearly 20,000 kids. A campaign goal of $500,000 just begins to address the needs of the most vulnerable children and families across the district.
The most pressing needs include:
-
Assisting parents with funds for childcare they had not planned for and cannot afford.
-
Supporting parents whose shifts have been reduced or jobs eliminated because of the downturn in the economy. They will need help to pay rent and basic utility bills.
-
Helping pay unforeseen medical bills due to contact with COVID-19.
-
Providing gasoline and grocery gift cards to families lacking funds.
