Project School Supplies

During these crazy and uncertain times, the Clarke County Education Foundation is doing its best to help our community.  Our Board has decided one way to help is by raising money to purchase school supplies for students whose families are struggling.

This summer, our goal is to purchase one set of school supplies for each student who receives free and reduced meals in CCPS.  One student’s supplies cost approximately $25 and there are about 400 students who receive free and reduced meals in CCPS.  Therefore, our goal is to raise $10,000 to purchase supplies for all students who need them!

Providing Free Internet Access

On behalf of the family and friends of Dr. Richard M. Lewis, Kajeets, a broadband internet device, have been made available to those students of CCPS who are not able to access internet in their homes!  This technology is the result of generous memorial contributions made to honor the late Dr. Lewis, who passed away in July 2016.  Dr. Lewis was the President of the Clarke County Education Foundation at the time of his passing, and he was a tireless advocate for access to educational opportunities.
