  • Help the Students of Tomorrow! – Endowment Fund

    The Lutheran Elementary School Association (LESA) has established an endowment to ensure that children, both now and in the future, have an opportunity to attend Lutheran Schools. The Lutheran Foundation of St. Louis demonstrated its support of LESA’s Building Blocks’ ministry by awarding a $3 million Endowment Challenge Grant in April 2005, which was fulfilled in June 2007. Through the generous gifts from our donors and other foundations, the endowment continues to grow. Be a blessing to generations to come by supporting the LESA Endowment for Scholarships!
