Throughout the years, your generous donations have allowed us to fund initiatives that cultivate meaningful learning experiences for Lawndale students. We invite you to partner with LESDEF help support excellence and innovation in our local elementary and middle schools.

 
Paving the Way

LESDEF has awarded nearly $400,000 in educational grants over the past twenty years. Our generous donors have enabled us to enrich learning for students of the Lawndale Elementary School District. Our grants have introduced new technology to Lawndale students, brought unique experiences, and supported curriculum development. Grants that we have funded emphasize Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) learning, heightening the academic excellence of the students in our community.
