Throughout the nearly 125 year history of District 207, one of the hallmarks has been support provided by students, parents and our community to help in times of need. That was the case in World War II when students helped raise enough money to purchase a C54 Skymaster cargo plane. That was also the case during the recent pandemic when more than $155,000 was raised for District 207 students in need.
The Kids in Need District 207 (KIND207) Fund provides funding that allows the schools to identify and provide students in need with assistance. The reasons could include students who have just arrived in our country, students who have lost everything in a fire or a student who has lost one or more parents.

- A window will appear on the left and you must indicate a price (donation amount which must be at least $5) and a recipient (please type in KIND207). Select “Add to Cart.”
- At the top right (after the “Success – Added to Cart” message disappears on the screen) there will be a photo of a shopping cart. Select that image and your donation should appear.
