MOMS Club Proceeds Benefit LTEF

The Lawrenceville MOMS Club recently contributed the proceeds of its annual Preschool Options Fair to the Lawrence Township Education Foundation (LTEF). The MOMS are Moms Offering Support to Moms and the November event raised $525, which the group decided to donate the LTEF in an effort to support public education in Lawrence. Event chairperson Deborah Dauer noted that the moms view the donation as another way to "support our teachers, our schools, our children."

The Preschool Options Fair offers parents of young children an opportunity to investigate their choices for preschools in the area. Over twenty preschool programs were on hand to provide information and register new students. In spite of bad weather, the event was quite successful and raised $525. The board of the MOMS Club, for the second year in a row, pledged the proceeds to another community group that is interested in quality educational choices, the Lawrence Township Education Foundation. Diane Senerth, Executive Director of the LTEF says, "We are very grateful for the support of the MOMS Club. Their donation will help us to enhance programming in public school classrooms. We are also impressed that a group of parents whose children are not yet in our schools recognize the importance of parental involvement in our mission."

The Lawrence Township Education Foundation is a not-for-profit volunteer organization that fosters educational excellence, creativity and achievement in the Lawrence Township Public Schools. For more information or to contribute, visit the LTEF web site at www.LTEFNJ.ORG or email info@ltefnj.org.
