IMPACT TOMORROW TODAY CAPITAL CAMPAIGN
In 2020, construction of the largest building expansion in LHS history was completed. The goal of this capital campaign is to reduce the debt of this project in 3 years, before the terms of the loan are renegotiated at a higher interest rate. Learn more about the Impact Tomorrow Today campaign.

ANNUAL FUND
The greatest need that LHS has is annual operating funds. LHS’s annual operating budgets depend on over 30% of third source funding. Moreover, the more dollars that are given to our annual fund, the less monies need to be raised through tuition. Lutheran High needs and appreciates all gifts of any size. Thank you for remembering our daily ministry needs and making a difference!

MEMORIAL OR COMMEMORATIVE DONATIONS
Are you looking for a special way to preserve the memory of a loved one, to celebrate a special occasion, to give a gift to the person "who has everything"? A donation to Lutheran High School is a fitting way to remember a special person, while at the same time helping others. To make an online donation click on other and specify that it is a memorial donation. Every year we are fortunate to receive many such donations which help with the operating costs of Lutheran High. You may want to make a simple one-time donation towards the ministry of Lutheran High in memory of a loved one, friend or colleague. Memorial donations of any amount are greatly appreciated. A letter can be sent to the bereaved family to inform them of your thoughtful gift. Additionally, our Legacy Leaves are a lovely way to create a permanent memorial to your loved one, as well as ensuring the ministry of Lutheran High can flourish. The $500 gift will be put into the Leaders for Life Endowment and a leaf will be engraved for the Memorial Tree. |

SCHOLARSHIPS & ENDOWMENTS
Charles Benedum Student Mentor Endowment
Established to honor Chuck Benedum for his years of service to LHS as a teacher, athletic director and volunteer. This award provides aid to students with financial need and a desire to serve, study and fully participate as a student at LSHS.
Crusader Activities Endowment
The earnings from this endowment provide funding for LHS’s co-curriculars such as athletics, music, and drama, but especially the co-curricular activities dedicated to the outreach and Christian leadership development (i.e. praise band, mission trips, service projects, leadership seminars, motivational speakers, bible studies, etc.). Gifts to this fund will allow more students to partake in Christian leadership development activities and character-building experiences beyond the normal classroom expectations and curriculum requirements at LHS.
Heidi G. Hake Scholarship Endowment
The earnings from this endowment provide scholarship assistance for students with financial need who value the importance of a Christ-centered education and participation in extracurricular activities.
John & Laverne Hermann Scholarship Endowment
The earnings from this endowment provide scholarship assistance for families who will have more than one from the same family attending Lutheran High.
Emily Hughes Memorial Scholarship
A scholarship has been set in memory of Lutheran High alum, Emily Hughes. The purpose of this scholarship is to honor the memory of Emily and to provide a scholarship for Catholic students attending Lutheran High School.
Katherine Marie Immel Memorial Scholarship
A scholarship has been set in memory of Lutheran High alum, Katherine (Katie) Marie Immel. The purpose of this scholarship is to honor the memory of Katie and to provide an annual amount of $1,500 to an incoming freshman of Lutheran High. Katie's family would like to be able to assist a student who understands the importance of getting good grades but balances academic excellence with the growth opportunity that participating in sports can bring. Katie's family will be involved in the final decision making process on who will receive the annual scholarship.
Leaders for Life Endowment (Student Aid Scholarships)
This is LHS’s largest and longest standing endowment fund. The earnings from this fund are primarily used to offer scholarship assistance to families and students in need. Indeed, this endowment represents LHS’s best effort to keep a Christian education affordable for most families in the Greater Sheboygan Area. Gifts to this fund allow us to reach out to more families and students who would otherwise be unable to attend due to financial constraints. Over the years, many special supporters of LHS have left memorials, legacy gifts, family donations, and estate gifts to this fund.
Teach Me Your Ways Endowment
The earnings and interest will be used to provide a Christmas bonus for full-time LHS teachers and staff until 2010. After 2010, and as the endowment fund grows, 50% of the fund earnings should be used for teacher/staff bonuses, while the other 50% of earnings shall be used for LHS’s Mentor program. Gifts to this fund support our outstanding teachers and staff.
