LVCF was at Dieruff High School on January 18, 2024, when Lee Butz and Dr. Carol Binks, ASD Superintendent, announced that the Learning Dome at Dieruff High School has been upgraded with the help of grants secured by Pa. Sen. Nick Miller, Rep. Josh Siegel, and the Galaxy Fund. The Galaxy Fund was created at the Community Foundation from the money received from donors during the renovation in 2019. The recent $100,000 state grant supported the upgrade of the hardware and software that powers the Learning Dome that is visited by all ASD students.
