Support FREEDOM SCHOOL with a Year-End Gift
As a CDF Freedom School site, St. Luke’s provides a 6-week summer literacy and cultural enrichment program for 80 local scholars
from K-8th grade. We are in full-swing preparation for our FIFTH summer of Freedom School!
Freedom School is a significant but worthy investment in local community students, increasing equitable access and cultural relevance to the education they receive from public schools. Freedom School uses reading engagement and culturally relevant books and activities to build a love for reading, develop social-emotional skills, and engage in honest discussions about social justice issues that impact them. Each summer, 90+% of our scholars have maintained or improved their reading levels, and 80+% reported improvement in various social and emotional skills! Additionally, past years' scholars have led an "un-ban books" campaign and hosted a town hall with local school administration and a state law maker.

Freedom School is funded by the generous support
of St. Luke’s congregants, and this high-quality program is offered at no cost
to community families. You can financially support Freedom School this year in
one of the following ways, but gifts of any amount are welcome!
