Dine & Donate
Every Tuesday and Thursday in December provides an opportunity for members of the community to support the Foundation, simply by eating at one of our Dine & Donate participating restaurants. These establishments will donate a portion of their proceeds on their respective night to the Foundation and it doesn’t cost you a thing.
Ovation!
The Lawrence Schools Foundation and Lied Center of Kansas are proud to announce the 5th annual, district-wide talent show for middle and high school students on February 4, 2024 at 7 p.m. Past events have included dancers, contortionists, trapeze artists, instrumentalists, singers and more. Students participating in Ovation! will be selected through an audition process, and will share their amazing talents on the main stage of the Lied Center with full production.
Casual for Kids Campaign
One Friday in November the Lawrence Schools Foundation hosts a unique fundraiser to support our programs, which include student scholarships, teacher awards, and grants. The annual Casual For Kids campaign encourages organizations to give schools a boost up when employees dress down at work.
