Overview

The Community Foundation of Herkimer and Oneida Counties announces the launch of SHINE, a collaboration with Johnson Park Center and Notre Dame Schools made possible by an anonymous donor’s endowed designated fund at the Foundation. SHINE offers opportunities for academic and personal growth to children of low-income households at Notre Dame Schools at no-cost. Eligible students are identified through Johnson Park Center programs.

Upon the fund’s creation and launch of SHINE, four students – ranging from 5 to 10 years of age – enrolled at Notre Dame Schools and will continue to attend for the remainder of their academic careers. In addition to tuition being covered, SHINE students are eligible to receive essentials to help them thrive, including clothing/uniforms, hygiene products, school supplies and meals.

By donating to the SHINE Fund, more children from low-income families will be given the opportunity to attend one of Central New York’s most reputable institutions without financial concern.
