Over 450 guests enjoyed socializing, live and silent auctions and dancing to the music of Living Proof. Organizers estimate that the event raised net proceeds of $75,000, including over $11,000 to provide creative classroom grants next year.
"Even with this challenging economy, our community understands that our children’s education takes center stage," said Jan Keefer, Gala co-chair. "With the community’s support, the Foundation will continue to enhance the educational experience for Lawrence Township students."
Lawrence Township School Foundation would like to thank Comcast, Title Sponsor, its many other corporate sponsors, auction donors, patrons and dedicated volunteers.

Community Investment Luncheon
Lawrence Township business leaders kicked off March Madness at the NCAA Headquarters on March 20th. One hundred fifty guests gathered to learn how they can make an impact on our children's education. Hosted by Gerry Dick, Inside Indiana Business, the group heard first hand how Foundation-funded programs are making a difference. High school students gave personal accounts of their own success stories due to support from the AVID college preparatory program (Advancement Via Individual Determination) and the MAC (My Achievement Center) tutoring centers. USA Funds, represented by Henry Fernandez, received an award in recognition of its generous financial support for the AVID program.
Thanks to our luncheon sponsor, Comcast.
