LEEF Campaign to Put $1 Million into Classrooms

The TIME is NOW!

LEEF Launches Campaign to Put $1 Million Back into the Classroom

We are living in uncertain times. Today’s school districts face new and ongoing challenges. As the 2020-2021 school year begins, families and students impacted by the COVID-19 health crisis face unemployment and anxiety. Shrinking budgets combined with ever-increasing expenses means it is going to take a team effort to ensure our next generation is ready to meet and exceed life’s challenges. 

Together, we can significantly impact the lives of our next generation… for only $2/month or $24/year.

If each person served by Leander ISD becomes a LEEF CLASSROOM IMPACT TEAM MEMBER, the impact would mean a nearly $1 million dollar investment back into our local classrooms. Together, we can create a sustainable source of funding and help our local students/teachers reach new heights. YOU can make a difference! 

You can stretch your contribution to LEEF by using an employee matching program. Please contact your HR department to see if your company has an employee giving campaign.

Plus, all donors who join the team in September receive an entry for a raffle drawing for an exquisite TIMEPIECE generously donated by M Robinson Fine Jewelers valued at $1050.

“It is more critical now than ever that we all come together as a community and give from the heart,” said M Robinson Fine Jewelers staff. “In times like these, we are all called to action. This is a token of our appreciation for all who caringly contribute. Your donation makes a huge difference even more so this year to help the amazing students and staff of the great Leander ISD. Just because things may look different right now, love isn’t cancelled.”

Classroom Impact Team

The Leander Educational Excellence Foundation (LEEF) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to enriching the educational experience by providing opportunities, cultivating success, and building community within the Leander Independent School District. Leander ISD currently serves more than 40,000 students and is expected to grow significantly in the next 10 years. With state funding for public education continuing to shrink, LEEF’s role in providing additional resources for teachers and students in our district is increasingly important. Please support this critical mission by joining our Classroom Impact Team. 

“Our children are the rock on which our future will be built, our greatest asset as a nation. They will be the leaders of our country, the creators of our national wealth who care for and protect our people.”
