Low Performing Schools get $3 million from Clipper Foundation

Some of the city’s lowest-performing schools will be getting some extra help, thanks to a $3 million gift from the Los Angeles Clippers Foundation and a year-long volunteer commitment from City Year Los Angeles. Los Angeles Unified School District Board President Steve Zimmer and Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti were among hundreds of volunteers who gathered on September 11 at L.A. Live to begin the initiative and celebrate the largest donation ever made by the Clippers Foundation.
