Leadership Giving
As a Leadership Donor, your donation of $2500 covers the cost of all available programs for three months. Through your support at the Leadership level, you may make a long-lasting difference in the life of a deserving student. In addition, as a Leadership Donor, a marker will be featured in the historic Gordon Parks school celebrating you or honoring someone of your choosing. Your help is appreciated so much by us, and we will acknowledge your generosity every chance we get.
