Love Our Schools brought together the public sector, individuals, businesses, churches, and nonprofit organizations, all united for a common cause – taking a stand to revolutionize the educational system in support of a brighter future for our children and our state. It is through this type of extraordinary and unprecedented partnership that entire communities can be impacted and lives transformed.
Launching its first initiative in the summer of 2019, Love Our Schools put out a call for help that resulted in an overwhelming groundswell of support. The community donated $1.3 million, and nearly 3,000 people volunteered to revitalize eight schools, equip 5,000 students and inspire over 750 teachers and staff. It was an opportunity for all to be a part of a pivotal change, showing that our community cares.
