Rick Blasing, school counselor at Lincoln Middle School, speaks to students about compassion during a 2016 assembly funded by a grant from the La Crosse Public Education Foundation.

“There are those things in life that we intentionally do that have a deeper meaning; that resonate longer by helping or empowering others.  Sometimes providing a much needed donation can make all the difference.  That is why I give to the La Crosse Public Education Foundation – no group provides more support that so profoundly enriches the educational experience of all our students.”
