SUMMARY:Targets for Christ Clay Shoot Tournament
DESCRIPTION:St. Timothy Christian Academy (STCA) in Plano\, Texas will be co-hosting its third “Targets for Christ” clay shoot tournament on September 19\, 2024.  This is the third year that Targets for Christ has worked with STCA to raise funds for our private\, non-profit school.  \nSTCA is a  school for students with learning differences\, serving grades K-12.  Every one of our students has a diagnosed learning disability\, and we accommodate over 20 different diagnoses. Our mission is to love and nurture our students as the unique individuals that God has created them to be – and our goal is to help them to understand and celebrate their differences. Fundraisers such as Targets for Christ are essential to supporting our work\, as the price of our tuition does not cover the operating costs of educating the children.  ALSO\, we are working to build our tuition assistance fund for any future family in need. \nPlease partner with us in our tournament by shooting\, donating\, buying a raffle ticket for the grand prize (a gun safe containing 4 new firearms)\, or referring a friend.  More information about our shoot can be found by contacting Kathy Lousignont\, Director of Development\, at klousignont@staplano.org.
