CAMP HILL SCHOOLS NEED YOUR SUPPORT NOW MORE THAN EVER!
|
Each year, The Lion Foundation asks for your support in funding the needs of our schools that cannot be covered through the regular school budget. This year, the pandemic has presented new challenges.
View our Wish List to learn about our new COVID-related priorities for technology and school safety/social distancing needs. Your donation matters! It is because of your generosity that we are continually able to fund the grants that support our students and teachers. Unfortunately, because of the uncertainty of holding sporting and arts events, we will not be offering athletic and arts passes at this time. However, what is absolutely certain is that The Lion Foundation will continue its rigorous grant process and its promise to work with the schools to focus your donations on the district-approved priorities of technology, safety, and academic needs so that we can continue to support our children’s educational endeavors.

To Our Camp Hill Families and Friends:
Like all of you, our schools have faced many challenges over the last few months in adapting to the new reality that the coronavirus has created for our communities.
We at The Lion Foundation are dedicated to helping.
The school district closed its doors on March 13, turning our educational model upside down overnight, and requiring our teachers and students to quickly shift to teaching and learning in new ways. Just last week, Gov. Wolf said he expects schools will look and feel different when they reopen in the fall – and that distance learning will remain an important part of safely educating students.
That means remote learning is no longer a luxury for our small, community schools, but a necessity. To help build a solid foundation for this new way of learning, The Lion Foundation recently voted to award a historic $50,000 grant to our Camp Hill schools to help support this need by establishing the new TECH CONNECT block grant.
This grant has already helped the district begin to address some of its immediate technology needs, including purchasing critically needed hardware and software for teachers and students. For instance, it was used to replace Chromebooks and for a new, web-based K-12 learning management system called Schoology, through which teachers can create assignments, assessments and discussions with students.
But more is needed, and The Lion Foundation is continuing to work closely with the district to determine how we, and you, our donors, can best support our schools.
Our goal is to raise $200,000 over the next few months to prepare for whatever lies ahead.
To support the Camp Hill School District and the growth of the TECH CONNECT block grant, The Lion Foundation is asking for community corporate partners and individuals to help us raise the money needed to ensure that our schools and students are ready for the start of the 2020-21 school year.
These are difficult times, but together, I believe we can rise to the challenge and continue to provide our students with the excellent education that has long been the hallmark of the Camp Hill School District.
Thank you to all our donors and supporters. We could not do this without you.

The Lion Foundation makes a difference in our community, one student at a time.
Camp Hill is a great place to live! Not unlike a scene from a Norman Rockwell painting—complete with parades, family movies on the ball field, athletic events at Siebert Park and Fiala Field, kids walking to school and playing in the creek.
At the center of all of this is our commitment to our small community schools. But like all towns, we face challenges. However, unlike in many places, Camp Hill pulls together to solve them as a community.

The Lion Foundation plays a role in helping our community stand up to challenges facing public education. As a 501(c)3 non-profit educational foundation—we help execute Camp Hill’s commitment to quality education, even in the face of tight budget cuts and economic uncertainty for public education.
Thanks to our donors, The Lion Foundation supports academic, athletic and cultural programming that taxpayer dollars do not cover. Our track record is strong for using your dollars--no matter the amount—to make things happen for “Our Children, Our Community, and Our Future” here in Camp Hill! We invite you to look at our web site and see firsthand the many things your donations support. Without you, none of this would be possible! Thank you for supporting The Lion Foundation. |
