What We Fund
Contributions made to the LKW Fund are directed towards our two primary purposes:

1. Providing scholarships and other resources which enable disadvantaged children to participate in art or nature programs so that they may learn to appreciate the beauty of art and nature and develop an abiding respect and compassion for the planet and its inhabitants.

2. Supporting programs which help victims of sexual assault and domestic abuse, including affected children, get the services and assistance they need so that their suffering is alleviated and the cycle of violence is not perpetuated.
