We are officially one month into our annual school supply drive! We’ve already seen some amazing support, but there is still plenty of time to make a difference before the drive wraps up on August 7th.
We want to make sure every single Lakeview student walks into their classroom this fall fully equipped to become tomorrow's leaders.
How you can still participate:
📦 In-Person Drop-Off: Drop off new school supplies or cash donations in the designated boxes inside the casino lobby.
🛍️Shop Online: Follow the link to shop directly for needed items! https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2AWVP47MGGD6O?
🎒100% of your donations go straight to local students and classrooms in need.
A huge thank you to everyone who has already pitched in and to our partner at Harrah's! 💙🩵
