THE LEON BAXTON LEGACY FUND
Join Us in Building This Crucial Endowment
"Launching an endowment to support our programs and ensure we have funding along the way means the world to me."
- Leon Baxton, CEO of Communities In Schools of Jacksonville
No single person embodies the spirit and the mission of CIS more than Leon. This new endowment fund represents an important step in positioning our organization for the future. Annual proceeds it produces will help us advance programs and services for at-risk students. Please consider joining us as part of this crucial and historic endeavor that will benefit local students for decades to come.
The Leon Baxton Legacy Fund will support programs, services and initiatives such as:
INNOVATION
The fund will enable CIS to respond to community needs by investing in new innovative initiatives that better serve students and families.
ENHANCED SERVICES
CIS currently supports only 10% of students in Duval County Public Schools. The fund will allow us to expand current programs and reach more students.
SUSTAINABILITY
Having a consistent, annual income stream from the new endowment will strengthen the sustainability of our organization.
