Are you interested in supporting the Lee Next Step Fund? Here are key ways you can be a part of our mission:

1.) Make a tax-deductible donation via check or credit card (secure on-line payment available here!). Your pledge will ensure that more Lee students gain access to college- and career- preparatory programs, and will help them be that much more prepared for their next step of a successful future.

  • Be a part of our Transportation Team. Transportation to and from FLO locations that occur in the city of Houston is a critical resource. Many Lee students do not have ready access to transportation to local universities, companies, or non-profit organizations for their attendance at mandatory program events. As a transportation team volunteer, the time you spend helping students arrive at an important event can make a huge difference (Liability release forms are provided by all student participants.)

3.) Consider joining our Board. Do you have experience in philanthropy, law, social entrepreneurship, community advocacy, or other areas that may benefit the Lee Next Step Fund? Are you passionate about helping low-income students gain access to the educational experiences that will help them succeed in life? We'd love to hear from you. E-mail Monica Piquet-Rodriguez for more information on joining our Board.
