Lil Dicky’s Giving Tuesday

In partnership with celebrity and philanthropist Dave Burd (aka Lil Dicky), our family of donors gave more than $21,000 in the weeks leading up to Giving Tuesday. This funding supported Philly FUNDamentals projects ranging from science kits to literacy programming to outdoor classroom essentials.

With the help of Dave Burd's generous challenge match, kids at George Nebinger Elementary received enhanced literacy instruction; the Kirkbride School raised crucial dollars to transform a seldom-used patio into an outdoor learning space; children at Kenderton Elementary earned enough to plant their own community garden; and Masterman secondary schoolers raised money to participate in the Model UN; among other impacts.

$21,342 in giving; 7 District schools impacted BY
