The Ridgefield Lions Club has generously offered to match up to $2,000 in donations to our Community Education department! All donations collected will fund youth scholarships that will send a child (who otherwise wouldn't be able to attend) to a summer class or camp.
For the next week, you can DOUBLE your impact by taking advantage of this generous offer. Visit https://wa-ridgefield-lite.intouchreceipting.com/Communit... to make an online donation, or visit the district office at 510 Pioneer Street (inside the Ridgefield Administrative and Civic Center) to make a donation in person. Thank you for your support!
"Every child deserves a champion—an adult who will never give up on them, who understands the power of connection and insists that they become the best that they can possibly be." ~ Rita Pierson
