ABOUT US

Lionsgate Foundation is administered by a volunteer board of directors and volunteers. Participants include community members and LGA alumni, parents, and staff. Less than ten percent of money raised by the foundation is used for administration. The balance is distributed to fund projects and initiatives throughout the calendar year. 

In the past school year, the Foundation spent over $100,000 on projects that supported: 

  • Classroom teachers with funds to pay for equipment, educational materials, and content experts that are not covered by state or federal funding. 

  • Individuals who were in school to obtain Minnesota educational licensure.

  • Staff appreciation events held throughout the year. 

  • Graduates with ongoing connection with school through alumni newsletters and reunion activities.

Board Meetings

The Foundation meets monthly on the second Wednesday of the month from 6:30 to 7:30 pm. The meetings are in person and online and the public is invited to attend. Contact us if you would like to attend a meeting or learn more about the foundation: info@lionsgatefoundation.com.
