TAKING ACTION AND EMPOWERING LT STUDENTS
A few dads of Lawrence Township students had been watching as the Mom’s Care giving circle raised thousands of dollars to support critical student needs during COVID and beyond. Knowing other dads who care deeply about student success, they wondered if they could double the impact started by Mom’s Care. By encouraging 100 dads to give $100, they wanted to raise $10,000 to directly support student needs in their district.
But in a district so large, offering support means tending to a variety of needs. Providing emergency food items or a backpack of school supplies offers support. Providing classrooms with resources and graduating seniors with scholarships offers support. Providing hands-on learning opportunities in wellness, STEM, and performing arts offers support. Since the Lawrence Township School Foundation provides these resources and more, the Dad’s Care initiative decided to direct donated dollars to empower that continued work.
Here are some of the ways your funds can directly support students:
- $25 provides 2 student backpacks stuffed with school supplies
- $50 funds participation in the VEX Robotics league for 1 student
- $75 provides 3 warm winter coats
- $100 provides lamps and bedding to an LT family
- $100+ covers a Legacy Study Trip to enhance learning
Together, we hope this caring, giving circle will be ongoing as we continue to extend the student needs we are able to support.
100 dads giving $100 each. Now that's POWERFUL!
