GDF Annual Report 2019-2020

ABOUT US
The Green Dragon Foundation is a community-based nonprofit 501(c)(3)
organization dedicated to providing and directing funding for the realization
of educational, cultural and athletic programs, and capital improvement
projects, for the enrichment and enhancement of the students of the
Lewisburg Area School District.
A Review of 2019-20 Successes
Thanks to loyal and dedicated donors and
volunteers, the hard work of The Green Dragon
Foundation’s Board of Directors, Lewisburg Area
School District leadership, faculty and staff, the
GDF raised $332,633 in 2019-2020.
Your gifts, and your willingness to invest in
Lewisburg area students, faculty and programs every
year, and especially during these uncertain times,
make a difference in every student’s life every day.
This additional revenue helps meet the needs of
Lewisburg’s most vulnerable students, and creates
exceptional opportunities for all Lewisburg students.
Endowments provide even greater long-term
programmatic support; major gifts underwrite projects;
and increasing annual support enhances a variety of
programs throughout the LASD.
The GDF is governed by a 29-member board of
directors (including advisors), led by executive
director Ann Glock, and staffed by administrative
assistant Tushaar Khurana. In 2019-2020, GDF
benefited from the work of 49 volunteers who
provided 370 hours of service.

A Plan for 2020-21 and Beyond
The GDF will continue to raise much-needed funds
to support the Lewisburg Area School District’s
priorities. For this year, and possibly longer, GDF
will concentrate its fundraising efforts to meet the
immediate needs of the district as their educational
plans evolve. Additionally, we will focus on helping
meet the needs of the most vulnerable students in
our school community.
As soon as the pandemic crisis eases, GDF will once
again begin to solicit gift commitments for capital
improvements and multi-year support of programs,
long-term investment through endowments and
planned giving opportunities for future support.
There is still so much to do!
PLEASE CONSIDER BECOMING A FINANCIAL SUPPORTER TO MAKE A
POSITIVE DIFFERENCE FOR OUR CURRENT AND FUTURE STUDENTS!
