Support the 2020 Class Project

For its class project, the 2020 class has established the Leadership Overland Park Scholarship Fund. The fund was designed to help in-need residents of Johnson County gain a professional or technical career. One in seven of Johnson County’s population has an income below 200% of the federal poverty level and is considered low income. It will make a collective impact on someone’s life and help support their path out of poverty, improve adult literacy, and create a consistent source of funding to help less fortunate residents of Johnson County achieve successful careers. Donations are tax-deductible to the full extent of the law. For more information or to help support their class project, click here.
