Annual fundraiser held in October!
The Central Lyon Foundation is dedicated to enhancing quality education through educational opportunities, school facilities, technology, and service.
The annual fundraising banquet, which is the centerpiece of its fall fundraising campaign, is held in October of each year and tickets can be purchased at the Central Lyon School office, the CAC office, or any of the local banks. Included in the ticket price is a meal and entertainment. Thirty-five to forty thousand dollars has been raised each of the past few years, and an increase has also been seen in dollars designated for scholarships. Dollars designated for scholarships are distributed according to the donor’s wishes. The Permanent Endowment Fund is also increasing. A major renovation to the elementary/middle school library was finished this past summer with the help of a $10,000 Foundation gift, and approximately $4,500 was spent on Lion Grants, which aid teachers with special projects in the classroom.
