It Takes A Village
Calvary's Partnership with Lewis & Clark Elementary
"It takes a village to raise a child" is a popular proverb with a clear message: the whole community has an essential role to play in the growth and development of its young people. Here at Calvary, we have joined our neighborhood school, Lewis and Clark, in a partnership to help meet the needs of children and teacher. Lewis and Clark Elementary is a part of our village.
What does the Partnership Look like
We are so excited to partner with Lewis and Clark in several ways. We have identified children who benefited from our Christmas Angel Tree and the Hat/Mitten Tree. The youth at Calvary have donated money to assist with snacks for hungry children and school transportation. We have celebrated with the students and staff on the last day of school with root beer floats and books, and we have done collection drives for outerwear, pajamas, and clothing. One of our favorite ways we partner with this awesome school is through reading.
Sponsoring a student or students
Our Vision
It costs roughly $100 to sponsor one child for the entire school year. We ask that you consider sponsoring one or more so we can meet our goal of providing for all students. Your sponsorship provides food and support for a child in need. It’s a simple way to make a lasting impact—one student, one life, one future changed. So far have a total of 18 students sponsored.
Two ways to sponsor a child:
Give $100 or $100 check designated to Sponsoring a Child to our Finance Director, Heather.
