GREENVILLE – The Empowering Darke County Youth Board of Directors and
the students it serves thank the Lydia Schaurer Memorial Trust for its
support of the Empowering After School and Summer Tutoring programs.
“Thanks to the Lydia Schaurer Trust and other local support, we will be
able to bring in qualified, licensed educators to improve our After
School and Summer Tutoring programs,” said Program Director Bob
Robinson. “With the additional professional services available to us,
we hope we can also enroll some of the students who have been waiting
for help since October.”
The Lydia Schaurer Memorial Trust is active in the support of the Darke
County Community, with donations to the Darke County Center for the
Arts, The Boys and Girls Club, Darke County Parks and more. The
Empowering Board truly appreciates the Trust adding its support to
Empowering programs.
Empowering Darke County Youth is in its second full year of tutoring
support to Darke County students. According to parents, almost without
exception the students are getting better grades and enjoying school
more. All services are free thanks to Edison State student volunteers
and the continuing support of organizations like the Lydia Schaurer
Memorial Trust, businesses and individuals. Empowering Darke County
