Hooray for the new year! Before we tell you about all the exciting things we have planned for 2023, we wanted to take a moment to thank you, our donors, friends and supporters, for helping us bring more than 100 great ideas to light in 2022!

Visiting authors. Student video equipment. Percussion instruments. Ping pong tables. A field trip to view a surgery live! Grants for all these experi ences—and so many more—were made possible because of YOUR donations.

Thank you!

We have big plans for this coming year. And it’s a special one: our 20th year of funding academic, athletic and cultural programs for our students.

We couldn’t be more proud of how far we’ve come, and how far we aim to go!

100+ Grants in 2022!

“Thank you so much for the flexible seating for our classroom. I really like them because they’re cool and they help me focus.”

“Wow! This is so cool, I didn’t know it [the drone] would sound like that!”

That’s what our students had to say about the amazing ideas and experiences YOU helped us fund this past year at Hoover, Eisenhower and the Middle and High Schools.

We are so proud to have helped bring more than 100 such wish list items submitted by our teachers to help our students grow in the classroom, on the stage and on the athletic field.

The first grant went toward funding Hoover Math Intervention Curriculum & Equipment. The 100th grant went to fund tables for the Ping Pong Club! None of this could have happened with- out your generous support. Our students and teachers – and all of us at The Lion Foundation – thank you!

The Best Of 2022

This past year brought with it so many wonderful moments. We welcomed our littlest Lions with a playground playdate— and a new book—before the start of their school journey.

We proudly saw our elementary school students showcase their innovative thinking skills during STEAM Day. And we watched our high schoolers soak in the sounds and sights of a wonderful theater production.

These moments, along with the smiles, confidence and knowledge they brought to our Camp Hill students, are why we do what we do. We can’t continue to bring Great Ideas to life in 2023 without You!
