LAPSTONE & HAMMER CHARITY FUNDRAISER

By Bob Babjak

Lapstone & Hammer is giving away 3 pairs of the Travis Scott Air Jordan 1 to raise funds for two local public schools with programs in motion that need our help. As we have done in the past with the Air Fear Of God 1 and the Off White x Converse Chuck 70, Lapstone & Hammer wants to harness the hype of one the hottest releases of the year to create real change in our community. We feel it is our duty to activate much needed resources to schools in Philadelphia and its surrounding communities that are in need of assistance.

For this fundraiser we have partnered with United Way who, through their Step On It initiative, have identified schools with specific programs that help build the foundation necessary to provide the additional skill development, support, and career engagements for young students living in the most high need areas. Our goal is to provide these schools with the tools and support to address the academic and non-academic needs of low-income students and their families, connecting home, school, and community in ways that make student success possible. We know that this task is impossible without working in partnership with local organizations and businesses in providing support to advance this mission.

We have selected two local elementary/middle schools as the beneficiaries of this fundraiser:

 

  • Add B Anderson School, Philadelphia, PA -
Proceeds will support the expansion and further development of a new computer lab and film electives program, increasing the frequency of classes and the number of students able to participate.

  • Bayard Middle School , Wilmington, DE-
Proceeds will support the creation of a clean uniform closet program, enabling students who are unable to buy or launder their own school uniforms to have clean clothes for school. Proceeds will also go towards the hiring of a school librarian, which the school currently lacks.

 

As business owners and proud members of the community we feel it is our job to lead by example. Pursuing these charity fundraising campaigns not only shows kids that charity is cool, it more importantly leaves a lasting impact on our community at large and the kids who will be our future leaders. 

This is a fantastic opportunity to make this special Air Jordan 1 Travis Scott release about more than just sneakers. It is an opportunity to bring the sneaker community together to motivate, inspire and affect real change in our world.
