The Roots of The Lion Foundation
The Roots of The Lion Foundation
In 2003, a small group of community-minded Camp Hillians recognized that our tax dollars were being stretched to their limits and that our school district had to make tough choices about important programs that benefit our children. They knew it was time to find a way to provide additional resources so that our children would continue to have access to the programs and opportunities that have set the Camp Hill School District apart as a top educational institution through the years. These individuals knew it was time to put our children, our community and our future first. Thus, The Lion Foundation was created.
The Lion Foundation operates as a 501(c)3 non-profit, charitable organization that works with the school district, Parent-Teacher Organizations and many other community organizations and members to raise funds and support for projects and programs prioritized according to four areas: academics; athletics; cultural activities; and a long-term endowment. A committed volunteer board, along with a small part-time staff, offers a collective array of expertise to advance the mission of The Lion Foundation and ensure that it supports the school district and Camp Hill’s children.
