KIPP in the Community: December 2020

Happy Holidays! Last month was filled with exciting news across our KIPP DC family, including our partnership with ProjectGiveBack to distribute food to families, the announcement of Tony Lewis as our new Board Chair, and the launch of the National Alumni Network support thousands of KIPP alumni across the country.

As we close out the year, I’m excited and encouraged by all of the work and sweat that our families, students, teachers, staff, and community have put into this year despite the many challenges.

Thank you all for partnering with KIPP DC. I’m looking forward to continuing to work together for ALL students as we march into 2021!

Stay safe and healthy

KIPP DC Partners with ProjectGiveBack

On November 25, KIPP DC partnered with ProjectGiveBack to distribute Thanksgiving meals to families. Thank you to our partners at ProjectGiveBack, volunteers, and all of the KIPP DC staff who made this possible. Because of your generosity, we delivered Thanksgiving food baskets to more than 225 families across Washington, DC. We look forward to continuing to work with the community to support students and families across The District.
