At RAWK, we offer all of our programs at no cost to students or families. In addition to operation costs, that also means covering the cost of a many supplies. We always need help and support from our community to make our work happen and we hope you’ll consider making a cash donation, spending some time volunteering with us, or taking a look at the following list for ideas about what we need to keep things RAWKing.
Thank you!
