Imagine the Creatable. . . LT ThinkLab

Lane Tech is looking to take the next step in the evolution of our program to create a new state-of-the-art STEAM learning hub called the ThinkLab. Imagine an idea space located directly across from our Maker's Lab, focused on hands-on learning and collaboration. Friends of Lane has received a Milestone gift of $100,000 to launch the ThinkLab campaign. Click HERE for more information and learn how you can participate.

Business Sponsorship Street Banners

Friends of Lane is launching a new program to help achieve our fundraising goal, but also encourage members of our broader community to partner with us toward our vision. Beginning January, 2018, businesses and organizations will have the opportunity to publicly display their support of Lane through a street banner program on Western and Addison between Roscoe and Rockwell Streets. Your tax deductible donation of $2,500 qualifies you for 12 consecutive months of advertising on one of the beautiful designed banners shown above. Your logo will be prominently displayed and each banner will also display one of the following words which you can select: Tradition, Excellence or Ingenuity.  Literally thousands of cars, buses and pedestrians travel past Lane on a daily basis. The banners will provide wonderful exposure for your business and also a statement of support for Lane Tech, our students, our history and the institution of public education. Every dollar raised by Friends of Lane is invested back into the school. In this time when the concept of public education for all is in jeopardy, we hope you will join us in this important display of support.
