#LifeAtLane

Remember the first time you felt like a part of something really special?

Spend just a few hours at Lane Tech, and you will feel that way again. You’ll see literally thousands of kids exploring, growing and building their dreams into reality. And since today is Giving Tuesday, Friends of Lane is thrilled to give you a unique opportunity to “meet” some of these amazing students through a new initiative, “Life at Lane”.

Visit lanetech.org/lifeatlane and you’ll meet Manali who loves technology and Marques, a star athlete. You’ll hear from David, a senior and thespian, as he shares his feelings about acting on Lane’s stage for the last time before college. You’ll follow Rebecca, a musician, as she explains what it’s like to be in the pit band for the “Sound of Music”. Matthew, an LTAC student, will tell you everything you’ve ever wanted to know about Aquaponics, and Patricia will inspire you with her stories of her community service and its importance to her. Colleen will share her thoughts as the Robotics team gets ready for competition, and we’ll watch Jacquese as she gets ready for the excitement of I-Days. And photo- journalist Colin will document it all as it unfolds.

Through Life at Lane, throughout the entire school year, you’ll get a peek into the daily lives and accomplishments of our students as they take important steps toward their futures beyond Lane. A future that, with your help, will be tremendously bright. The time to secure that future is now.

On this Giving Tuesday, please join the Campaign for Lane and give to the Friends of Lane Annual Appeal this holiday season. On behalf of Manali, Marques, David, Rebecca, Matthew, Patricia, Colleen, Jacquese, Colin and the thousands of other Lane Tech students who benefit from your support, thank you!
